disconnect is out of the line of sight, lock it in the OPEN position and tag to prevent the application of power. Make sure the heater has
cooled enough to safely handle.

Once a year inspect the control panel wiring to make certain insulation is intact and all connections are tight. Inspect all heater and relay
contacts. If the contacts appear badly pitted or burned, replace the contactor/relay.

Clean the unit casing, fan and motor once a year. A dirty motor will tend to run hot and eventually will be damage internally. Use the
crevice tool on a vacuum cleaner or a clean cloth to clear dust and dirt. Any rust spots on the casing should be cleaned and repainted.
Lubrication:
All units have fan motors that are permanently lubricated so that only occasional cleaning is required.
