To change motor speeds disconnect the BLUE and/or YELLOW fan lead
from motor connector terminal #2 and/or 3 (factory default position) and
move to desired speed-tap; 1, 2, 3, or 5.
Speed-taps 1, 2, and 3 have a 90 second blower off time delay
pre-programmed into the motor. Speed-taps 4 and 5 are used for high
static applications, but has a 0 second blower time delay
pre-programmed into the motor. See Airflow Performance tables for
actual CFM. Se

for motor speed selection location.
NOTE: In low static applications, lower motor speed tap should be used
to reduce possibility of water being blown off coil.
Refrigerant Tubing Connection and
Evacuation
Insulate entire suction tube. Do not use damaged, dirty, or contaminated
tubing because it may plug refrigerant flow-control device. ALWAYS
evacuate the coil and field-supplied tubing to 500 microns before
opening outdoor unit service valves.
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.
PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product or property damage.
A brazing shield MUST be used when tubing sets are being brazed to
the unit connections to prevent damage to the unit surface and
condensate pan fitting caps.
Units have sweat suction and liquid tube connections. Make suction tube
connection first.
1. Cut tubing to correct length.
2. Insert tube into sweat connection on unit until it bottoms.
PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product or property damage.
Wrap a wet cloth around rear of fitting to prevent damage to TXV and
factory-made joints.
3. Braze connection using silver bearing or non-silver bearing brazing
4. Evacuate coil and tubing system to 500 microns using a deep

Refrigerant Flow-Control Device

The 018-060 size units come equipped with a R-410A refrigerant
mechanical TXV. When tightening nuts on a TXV, do not exceed
20 ft-lbs.

PRODUCT OPERATION HAZARD
90 sec off delay
Failure to follow this caution may result in improper product operation.
0 sec off delay
If using a TXV in conjunction with a single-phase reciprocating
0 sec off delay
compressor, a compressor start capacitor and relay are required.
Consult outdoor unit pre-sale literature for start assist kit part number.
Disassembly
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury.
Remove refrigerant charge from system and ensure there is no pressure
before servicing the TXV.
NOTE: For Item #1
