Removing and Installing Panels

CAUTION
To prevent personal injury, or damage to panels,
unit or structure, be sure to observe the following:
While installing or servicing this unit, carefully stow
all removed panels out of the way, so that the panels
will not cause injury to personnel, nor cause
damage to objects or structures nearby, nor will the
panels be subjected to damage (e.g., being bent or
scratched).
While handling or stowing the panels, consider any
weather conditions, especially windy conditions,
that may cause panels to be blown around and
battered.

1. Remove two screws, allowing the panel to swing open
slightly as illustrated in figure 13.
NOTE − Hold the panel firmly throughout this procedure
2. Rotate bottom corner of panel away from hinge corner
post until lower three tabs clear the slots as illustrated
in figure 13, detail B.
3. Move panel down until lip of upper tab clears the top
slot in corner post as illustrated in figure 13, detail A.
INSTALLING PANEL

1. Position the panel almost parallel with the unit as
illustrated in figure 14, detail D with the screw side as
close to the unit as possible.
