RTHD Units with IT Starter
Removal of Existing Starter
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote
disconnects and discharge all motor start/run capacitors
before servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout
procedures to ensure the power cannot be inadvertently
energized. For variable frequency drives or other energy
storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to
the appropriate manufacturer's literature for allowable
waiting periods for discharge of capacitors. Verify with
an appropriate voltmeter that all capacitors have
discharged. Failure to disconnect power and discharge
capacitors before servicing could result in death or
serious injury.
For additional information regarding the safe discharge
of capacitors, see PROD-SVB06A-EN.
