Step 2 — Blower Motor and Wheel Maintenance
To ensure long life, economy, and high efficiency, clean
accumulated dirt and grease from blower wheel and motor
annually.
The inducer and blower motors are pre- -lubricated and require no
additional lubrication. These motors can be identified by the
absence of oil ports on each end of the motor.
The following items should be performed by a qualified service
technician.
Clean blower motor and wheel as follows:
1. Turn off electrical supply to furnace.
2. Remove main furnace door and blower access panel.
3. Disconnect wires
All factory wires can be left connected, but field thermostat
connections may need to be disconnected depending on
their length and routing.
4. Remove control box mounting screws, and position control
box, transformer, and door switch assembly to right side of
furnace casing.
5. If condensate trap is located in left- - or right- -hand side of
furnace casing, proceed to item 6. Otherwise remove trap
and tubing as described below (See Fig. 5.):
a. Disconnect field drain connection from condensate trap.
b. Disconnect drain and relief port tubes from condensate
trap.
c. Remove condensate trap from blower shelf.
6. Remove screws securing blower assembly to blower shelf
and slide blower assembly out of furnace. Detach ground
wire and disconnect blower motor harness plugs from
blower motor.
NOTE: Blower wheel is fragile. Use care.
7. Clean blower wheel and motor by using a vacuum with soft
brush attachment. Be careful not to disturb balance weights
(clips) on blower wheel vanes. Do not bend wheel or blades
as balance will be affected.
8. If greasy residue is present on blower wheel, remove wheel
from the blower housing and wash it with an appropriate
degreaser. To remove wheel:
