Dimensional Data Figure 1, p. 12 illustrates the minimum operating and service clearances for either a single or multiple unit installation. These clearances are the minimum distances necessary to assure adequate serviceability, cataloged unit capacity, and peak operating efficiency. Providing less than the recommended clearances may result in condenser coil starvation, “short-circuiting”...

Pre Start Verifying Proper Air Flow (Units with Belt Drive Indoor Fan) Much of the systems performance and reliability is closely associated with, and dependent upon having the proper airflow supplied both to the space that is being conditioned and across the evaporator coil. The indoor fan speed is changed by opening or closing the adjustable motor sheave.
Start Up Sequence Of Operation indoor fan relay (F) coil is de-energized with heater contactors. These units are offered with electromechanical controls. When the thermostat fan selection switch is set to the "On" position, the thermostat keeps the indoor fan relay coil (F) Note: The Condensate Overflow Switch (COF) (optional) energized for continuous fan motor operation.
