that the wiring insulation is intact.
3. Check drain pans and condensate piping to insure they are
free of obstacles.
4. Manually rotate the indoor fan to insure proper operation.
5. Inspect the evaporator and condenser coils for dirt and de-
bris. If the coils appear dirty, clean them.
6. With the unit operating in the cooling mode, check the suc-
tion and discharge pressures and compare them with
Pressure Curve values in unit Service Facts. Record these
readings on the "Maintenance Log."

excessive vibration. Clean blower wheels as needed.
Annually (Cooling Season)
The following maintenance procedures must be performed

place it.
6. Inspect the control panel wiring to insure that all connec-
tions are tight and that the insulation is intact.
Lubricate the indoor fan motor bearing with a non detergent
