INTRODUCTION
Evaporativecoolingworksontheprincipleofheatabsorptionbymoistureevaporation.Whena swimmer
leavesthewateron awindyday,he feelscool becausethe moistureon his bodyis evaporatingand
absorbingheat.
Yourevaporativecooler drawsexteriorair intospecialpads soakedwithwater,where the air iscooledby
evaporation,then circulatedintoyour home.
Yourevaporative cooler makes the best possible use of the evaporative process by metering the flow of
water, distributing it evenlythrough the filtermedia, and blowing a steady stream of cooled air into your
home. The air is then channeled through the building and vented out of the home through open
windows, doors or vents.
In _ are the major parts of your cooler that keep this process operating efficiendy. The motor (1)
drives the blower (2) which draws air from outside through the pads (3) saturated with water from the
pump (4) via the water distribution system (5). The float valve (6) and standpipe (7) hold the water In a
reservoir (8) at a constant level.

INSTALLATION
MountingOf DownDischargeAndHorizontalModels
lm_mportant:Read these instructions
carefully before installing,
operating or servicing your
evaporative cooler.
SAFETY
Caution: ,_
Disconnect all _ ]_
electrical power _
to the cooler _
before attempting
to install, open, or service your
cooler. If the cooler is
thermostatically controlled, the
thermostat is not to he used as a
disconnect as it may reset and start
the unit unexpectedly.
Evenwhile routinelyinspecting or servicingthe
inside,the cooler can be accidentallystarted. Keep
children and pets awayfrom the cooler and
electricalsupplywhen youare working on it.
Alwaysuse the recommended toolslisted in this
manual. Don't attemptto perform any part of the
installationdescribed in thisbook unless youare
fully qualified to do so. Allelectricalwork must
meet local cedes and must be performed by
qualifiedpersonnelonly
Toinstallcoolercabinet,thefollowingtoolsare
required:
•5/32"bexkeyAllenwrench
•Pliers
• Adjustablewrenches
• Tubingcutter
•Screwdrivers
Your cooler may he... a horizontal

If the cooler youhaveselected is mbe
mountedon the roofof yourhome,remember
these important roles:
• Neverattempttoinstallorservicea coolerduring

•Neverwearshoeswithslicksoleswhenworking
orwalkingona roof Whenyouleastexpectityou

• Neverdrainwaterdirectlyona roof Usea drain
hosetorunwatertothegroundortoa raingutter.
Before attempting to install the cooler, make
sure the following preparations have been
made:
• Assurethatdiemountingsurfaceisstrongenough
tobeartheweightofdiecoolerwheninuse;
rememberthatwhendiesystemfillswithwater,the
coolerwillbemuchheavierthanwhendry.For

• Makesureanyductworkandelectricalneeds
complywithlocal,state,countyandfederalcodes.
• Makesurecooleris secureto thestandor legkit
andthatissecuretotheroof.
Ifthe cooler is to be mounted on the roof,construct
a suitable roof stand to support the entire weightof
the unit. Aroof jack should not be used tosupport
any weightof the unit. Werecommend a #785 leg ldt
to support the unit and to secure it to the roof. Place
the cooler over the roof jack and position so that it
is level.Carefullyseal die space betweenthe roof
jack and bottom of cooler withcaulking compound,
silicone, asphalt or industrial sealing tape to prevent
air leakage. Then carefullyseal the roof jack to roof
withasphalt or caulkingcompoundto prevent air
leakagefrom cooler or rainwater from leaking into
roof.

Note thatthereare twoplug-ins, one for the motor
and one for the pump (see Figure7). Thesemay be

with proper electrical
equipment and knowledge
should adjust variable pitch

Disconnect all electrical
power to the cooler and insure that belt
is not rotating before adjusting belt tension by
changing diameter of adjustable sheave. Adjust
belt tension only by adjusting motor bracket.

GENERAL INSPECTION
Start-UpInspection
Beforestartingthecoolermotorandpumptocheck
outoperation,makesureallinstallationsand
adjustmentshavebeenproperlyandthoroughly
made.Assurethat:
•Cooler mounting is level; duct is sealed.
•Cabinet is securely fastened to mounting.
•Cooler cabinet is grounded. Electrical
connections are safe and secure.
• Motor, pump, and float installed. Motor and
pump plugged into junction box (on window
models,theyarefactory-wired).
• Pump impeRer turns freely. Remove pump and
basket. Remove impeller cover (see illustration
on page 6) and spin the impeller to assure free
rotation.
•Water lines connected securely without leaks.
Water supply torned on.
•Float adjusted for proper water level.
•Blower, shaft, collar, and pulley set bolts are
snug (do not overtightco pulley bolt).
•Pulley alignment okay; belt tension okay (see
page 3 and 4 for instructions).
•Blower bearings are lubricated. Fill oil cup with
a good grade SAE 2OWor 3OWoiL
• Pads presoaked and correctly installed.
• MI free nspon fibers are removed from bottom
pan to prevent blockage of water distribution.
•Turn control switch to PUMPONLYposition.
Check to see that pump starts and that water
flows evenly through all distribution outlets.
Start-UpCheckList
To check out installation, an initial start-up
procedureshould be followed:
1. _at electrical supply on.
2. Turn control switch to PUMPONLYposition.
Chock to see that pomp starts aad pads use
evenly wet.
3. Openwindowsoryeatsinhouse.
4. Start blower by switching to COOL.
5. Check for cool air delivery. (Note: an aroma of
damp wood will be present during initial use of
new pads.)
In case of trouble in any of these steps, referto the
Troublesheoting Chart on page Z
CabinetInspection CheckList
1. Check for leaks.
2. Chock to see that the cooler and troughs are
level.
3. Check cooler pads for uneven wetting or open
spots.
4. Check water level (see page 4).
5. Check water distribution system for full even
flow.
6. Make sure trough openings are unclogged.
7. Rotate blower wheel for free movement. Align
belt (see page 3).
8. Check belt tension and condition.
9. Chockthat set screws and nuts on pulleys,
blower wheel and collars are tighL
In case of trouble in any of these steps, refer to the

To Install Cooler Using A Chain Kit
1. Attachscrew hooks to outsidewindow frame

hook is inserted to fulldepth in frame for
maximumstrength. Attachchain to each hook.
2. If your cooler does not have holes
predrilled, drill 3/16" holes 1"aboveeach pad
frame corner at rear of cooler cabinet. Bolt
hanger tabs to cooler (notched end up) using
machine screws and nuts provided.
3. Placeleg levelingbolts in holes in cabinet front
withnut, washer and angleto outsideof cabinet.
4. Checkwindow sill offset.., to determine the
thicknessof thewood strip for clearance. This
clearance will provide space for thegrille and
