Replacement Procedures
Service Manual
Compressor The compressor is located at the front of the refrigeration cartridge, beside the condenser. If
the compressor is causing excessive noise, check the mountings to ensure there is no damage
to the rubber or the washers, nuts or screws.
Before replacing the compressor, check all plug connections and ensure the compressor
electrics are operating correctly (see “Compressor Electrics” on page 38). The compressor
must be supplied with consistent voltage over 220 volts. Ensure the voltage does not drop at
start-up. If the voltage does drop, ensure the cartridge has a direct power supply (not from a
multi-box or extension cord). Generally a faulty compressor may have a distinct hissing sound
and run with a very hot body temperature.
4. Remove the screw and washer from the centre of the fan blade, and lift the blade from the motor.
5. Fit the new blade, ensuring it is centred within the evaporator shroud. Tighten the blade to fan
motor manufacturer recommended torque setting.
6. Reassemble the cartridge and test for correct operation.
Procedure 33: To replace the evaporator fan motor
1. Access the evaporator fan assembly (see Procedure 31, on page 36).
2. Remove the evaporator fan blade (see Procedure 32).
3. Free the fan’s flexible cord by cutting the cable ties, trace the cable back to the connector (near
the compressor electrics), and unplug.
4. Detach the fan motor from the fan mounting brackets by removing the four screws from the
mounting bracket.
5. Attach to the replacement motor. Ensure that the flexible cord points towards the bottom of the
evaporator tub once reinstalled. Take care to re-cable tie the fan and temperature probe flexible
cords back onto the mounting bracket to prevent high frequency vibration.
6. Fit the fan blade, ensuring it is centred within the evaporator shroud. Tighten the blade to 1.5 Nm.
7. Reassemble cartridge and test for correct operation.
Procedure 32: To replace the evaporator fan blade (continued)
IMPORTANT
To eliminate possible vibration noise, ensure no pipes touch
the plastic base and condenser assembly.
