• Exposing the Buss Bar Assembly

Annually, remove the front cover at thebottom of the unit to expose the buss bars.

• Maintenance of Buss Bar Assembly

On all units, the buss bars should be visu-ally examined for excessive heating. Ifpotentially faulty or loose joints are found,they should be tightened or replaced.

In the cases where mechanical lugsinstead of the stud-lug buss assembly areused, it is very important that they beexamined closely. Most mechanical lugsare made of aluminum and are verysusceptible to galvanic corrosion.

If the set screw cannot be tightened,replace the lug. If there appears to becorrosion around the copper to aluminumconnection, remove the copper wire andclean the wire, coat the wire with an anti-corrosion grease, and retighten the assembly.

• Receptacles and Breakers

The receptacles and breakers should beexamined annually, and if any sign ofheating is evident, the receptacles orbreakers should be replaced.

• Solvents

DO NOT spray any solvents on the elec-trical components. Solvents will causestress cracking of the polymeric materialsand will void warranty.

Lighting Assembly

To test the lighting assembly, the photocellshould be covered with a piece of black tapeand in about 2-3 minutes the light should illu-minate. If this does not occur, the followingitems should be checked: photocell and bulb.

Winterizing

The water system should be purged with airand each ball valve should be opened andclosed after the system has been drained.This will remove the slug of water thatremains in the ball. Failure to remove waterfrom valve will result in cracking if exposed tofreezing temperatures.
