Disassembly

Remove the front trim, two screws from the upper body, and one screw from the lower body. Lift the upper body off to expose the component parts fastened to the lower body. All electrical parts can now be tested. An electric soldering pen should be used on the solder connections.

The cord wires go under the switch panel and secure to the cord terminals. By removing the screws in the switch, the switch panel with rectifier attached can be- lifted out. The rectifier is secured to the switch panel by a clip. The heater element and safety thermostat can be lifted out as an assembly. The safety thermostat is a normally closed switch.

A spring clip secures the motor. The motor shaft has a friction fit into the fan. Do not drop any small object into the fan chamber as the fan may throw it through the heater element and damage it.
