NOTE: All service to be performed by an authorized service
person.
1. Remove wrap around panel by removing two bolts, one
on each side, from the bottom of the unit and carefully
pulling the panel off.
2. Disconnect power cord from the wall box.
3. Shut off water inlet supply. Depress push button to
relieve
any residual water pressure.
4. Remove the strainer plate, drain plug, and bubbler.
5. Remove the nuts holding the receptor on, 2 each side,
and remove the receptor from the unit.
6. Remove tank drain plug and drain water out of tank. Then
replace drain plug using teflon thread tape.
7. Disconnect the water inlet from the regulator/valve
assembly (item 1, figure 1).
8. Disconnect the line from the regulator/valve outlet to the
chiller inlet and discard (item 2, figure 1).
9. Turn elbow (item 1, figure 2) on chiller inlet so it is facing
down. Connect water inlet line disconnected in step 6 to the
elbow (item 2, figure 2).
NOTE: Item 2 - Figure 2 may need to be cut back shorter to
fit new inlet. Use new elbow if required.
10. Cut chiller outlet line approx. 1" before the braze joint,
(see figure 3). There must be enough straight tube on the
chiller outlet to attach a tee (approx 3/4").
NOTE: Use IMP or equivalent tube cutter. DO NOT use
hacksaw!
11. Install tee (item 1, figure 4, P/N 70632C) to chiller outlet
line with side connection facing the back, left corner of the
cooler.
NOTE: The tubing supplied is a copper flex tubing and is
made for easy bending. However, bending the tube too
tightly can kink it and excessive bending could make it
brittle. Try and make the routing complete with as few
bends as possible.
12. Connect the glass filler service line to the side connection of the tee (item 2, figure 4, P/N 60-26858-51-550).
13. Connect the flex tube assembly to the remaining
connection of the tee. (item 3, figure 4)
14. Bend the flex tube assembly to connect to the regulator/
valve inlet (item 3, figure 4). Care should be taken not to
kink the tubing. Bend should be approx as shown (item 4,
figure 2). Make sure the tubing does not interfere with the
operation of the regulator/valve lever and is away from the
tank drain.
15. Connect the bubbler service line to the regulator/valve
outlet (item 5, figures 2 & 4). Use new line if required.
16. Install gaskets provided with kit to glass filler nipple, (1
gasket P/N 10-08540-40-740) and bubbler nipple (2 black
gaskets P/N 10-03227-40-560) item 6, figure 4.
17. Find the plug bufton located at back of receptor and
remove it.
18. Install the receptor, aligning glass filler and projector
nipples with the holes in receptor. If additional bending is
required, care should be taken not to kink the tubing.
19. Install the bubbler. Install glass filler using gasket
.provided. Install the drain plug and strainer plate.
CAUTION: DO NOT reuse old gaskets! Use only those
provided with this or other Halsey Taylor kits.
