D. Supply/Return Air Blower 
 
Check in the blower compartment for dust, dirt, debris, and for the presence of 
insects. Remove any foreign material. Clean the blower wheel, housing, and 
compartment of dust and lint with a vacuum.  
 
The blower motor has sealed bearings that are permanently lubricated. The blower 
motor bearings do not require oil or any type of additional lubrication. 
 
E. Supply/Return Air Filter 
 
A permanent-type air filter is provided in the return section of this unit. This filter 
should be inspected regularly. When the filter is dirty, it should be cleaned or 
replaced to assure proper heating/cooling system operation. Follow the cleaning, 
removal and replacement procedure below. 
 
1.  Filter maintenance procedure 
 
The filter rack is located behind an access panel on the left-hand side of the 
unit, refer to Figure 12. Shut off the electrical power to the unit. Remove the 
screws retaining the access panel to the housing. Remove the access panel. 
Slide the dirty air filter out of the filter rack. Clean the filter by either 
vacuuming, rinsing with tap water, hosing, or dipping in an ordinary detergent 
solution. After cleaning and drying the filter, replace the completely dry filter in 
the rack. If the filter has a supporting mesh, the mesh side of the filter must be 
placed towards the furnace.
