B. Blower Motor and Wheel
For long life, economy, and high efficiency, clean accumulated dirt
and grease from the blower wheel and motor annually.
The following steps should be performed by a qualified service
technician:
Some motors have prelubricated sealed bearings and require no
lubrication. These motors can be identified by the absence of oil
ports on each end of the motor. For those motors with oil ports,
lubricate motor every 5 years if motor is used on intermittent
operation (thermostat FAN switch in AUTO position), or every 2
years if motor is in continuous operation (thermostat FAN switch
in ON position).
Remember to disconnect the electrical supply before removing
access doors.
Clean and lubricate as follows:
1. Remove 2 screws from blower access door (downflow
furnace only). Remove blower access door.
2. Remove vent pipe enclosure (downflow furnace only) and
disconnect short piece of vent pipe from relief box.
