Start fan motor and check for proper rotation. A rotation arrow is located on the fan housing. If the fan is rotating in the opposite direction, disconnect the power to the motor starter, interchange any two (2) wires on the output side of the starter (three- phase systems only), engage starter disconnect, then start fan and recheck rotation.

5.2 CHECK LIST

Always verify that any hopper slide gates are closed and that the doors, drum lids and gaskets are in place. The material being collected will not separate from the airstream if any leakage occurs around the base or drum. Failure to adhere to these instructions may also cause the motor to overload. Verify that exhaust air remains visibly clean. If an emission develops, examine drums, drum lids, etc. for possible leaks.
