INSPECTION

Prior to initial use, and at monthly intervals, all rigging shackles,
clevis pins, and straps should be visually inspected for any damage,
evidence of wear, structural deformation, or cracks. Particular
attention should be paid to excessive wear at hoist hooking points
and load support areas. Materials showing any kind of wear in
these areas must not be used and should be discarded.
WARNING
!
UNIT FALLING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Never stand beneath rigged units or lift over people.
1. Leave top shipping skid on the unit for use as a spreader bar
to prevent the rigging straps from damaging the unit. If the
skid is not available, use a spreader bar of sufficient length
to protect the unit from damage.
WARNING
!
PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury.
When straps are taut, the clevis should be a minimum of 36
in. (914 mm) above the unit top cover.

WARNING
!
UNIT FALLING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Large base units must be secured to common curb before
allowing full weight of unit to rest on curb. Install screws
through curb into unit base rails while rigging crane is still
supporting unit.
Lifting holes are provided in base rails as shown.
1. Attach shackles, clevis pins, and straps to the base rails of
the unit. Be sure materials are rated to hold the weight of the
unit (See Fig. 5).
2. Attach a clevis of sufficient strength in the middle of the
straps. Adjust the clevis location to ensure unit is lifted level
with the ground.
After the unit is placed on the roof curb or mounting pad, remove
the top skid.

Step 6 — Connect Condensate Drain
NOTE: When installing condensate drain connection be sure to
comply with local codes and restrictions.
This unit disposes of condensate water through a 3/4 in. NPT
fitting which exits through the base on the evaporator coil access
side. See Fig. 2 and 3 for location.
Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop
installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground
level installations. Install a field- -supplied 2- -in. (51 mm)
condensate trap at end of condensate connection to ensure proper
drainage. Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25
mm) lower than the drain pan condensate connection to prevent the
pan from overflowing (See Fig. 8). When using a gravel apron,
make sure it slopes away from the unit.
Connect a drain tube using a minimum of 3/4 - -in. PVC or 3/4 - -in.
copper pipe (all field- -supplied) at the outlet end of the 2- -in. (51
mm) trap. Do not undersize the tube. Pitch the drain tube
downward at a slope of at least 1- -in. (25 mm) for every 10 ft (3.1
m) of horizontal run. Be sure to check the drain tube for leaks.
Prime trap at the beginning of the cooling season start- -up.

Step 7 — Install Duct Connections
The design and installation of the duct system must be in
accordance with the standards of the NFPA for installation of
non- -residence type air conditioning and ventilating systems,
NFPA 90A or residence type, NFPA 90B and/or local codes and
ordinances.
Select and size ductwork, supply- -air registers, and return air grilles
according
to
ASHRAE
(American
Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers) recommendations.
The unit has duct flanges on the supply- - and return- -air openings
on the side of the unit.
When designing and installing ductwork, consider the following:
1. All units should have field- -supplied filters or accessory
filter rack installed in the return- -air side of the unit.
Recommended sizes for filters are shown in Table 1.
2. Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. Abrupt
change in duct size adversely affects air performance.
IMPORTANT: Use flexible connectors between ductwork and
unit to prevent transmission of vibration. Use suitable gaskets to
