Hose Adapter

Features

Air Intake

These coolers have 3 media panels instead of a single panel found on most mobile coolers. 3 panels allow more air-intake area and reduce pre-rotation of the air to the prop, which translates into lower static pressure and more efficient air delivery to the prop.

Cooler Maintenance

 Use all precautions and disconnect from power source before performing any maintenance.

Cleaning Cooler and Rigid Media Pads

The removable panel and media pad can be sprayed out on the ground to clean pad. Use light pressure when spraying pads. You can use a soft bristle brush to gently wipe away deposits. NEVER spray pads with water while cooler is operating, and fan is running. This can cause damage to motor and will void the warranty.

Removal of the Back Panel (Disconnect power supply before this procedure.)

  2. Check the POWER switch, push it to “ON”.
  3. The TIMER switch is “OFF”, turn it to “ON”.

2. Cooler does not pump|

  1. Pump is not activated. Push the PUMP switch to “ON”.
  2. Water level is low. Fill with water and make sure pump is activated.
  3. Be sure the pump and pump hose are clear of debris.
  4. Pump may be defective. Replace pump. ***

4. Louver does not operate|

  1. Louver does not move. Put swing switch position to “ON”.
  2. Check Oscillator motor for proper placement and operation.

5. Water leakage|

  1. Check the cap of the drain assembly, make sure it tightened.
  2. Inspect tank for cracks or breakage.
  3. Make sure cooler is level.
  4. Check media pads for buildup allowing water out on outside of pad frame — change media if needed.
  5. If water is coming out fan, check for leaks in water distribution hoses and/or leaks at hose connections to spreaders,
  6. Be sure there is at least 4 inches of space for rear panel free from wall or other obstruction. This could make the side panels release water to airstream due to increased air velocity through the sides.
  7. Spreaders may have scale buildup allowing water to pool and spill over into airstream—Clean spreaders.

6. Float Valve|

  1. If water levels are too high/low, adjust the wing nut on the valve.
  2. If there is a leak, check for cracks. Purchase new valve at www.hessaireparts.com
