Fan Motor – Heat is the motor’s greatest enemy. Make certain air passages in both the motor and in the distiller are kept open and clear of lint. Blow or vacuum motor and cooling coils regularly.

If you cannot get this motor to sit flush – remove both nuts from the bottom of the motor, then install the motor, but when you tighten the nuts to the distillers frame, make sure the screw mounts are in place. Hand turn the fan blade to make sure it is reinstalled at the correct height, make sure fan blade is installed correctly, so it scoops the air.  Don’t install blade upside down as blade will not cool properly. Make sure blade  does not hit the coils.

Assembly Instructions

• Ensure that all of the parts that you require are available to you.
• Turn main power switch on distiller off and drain the boiler tank. CAUTION: DRAIN VALVE MAY BE VERY HOT. Unplug cord from wall plug and wait at least 1 hour for distiller to cool.
• Using the Robertson and Phillips screwdrivers (or 7/16” socket on a 26C-8 or 26-14), remove the Distiller covers. This will require disconnecting the water feed line and removing the brass reducer fitting on 26-CT, 26D-8, 26C-8 and 26-14 models. ENSURE THE SADDLE VALVE IS CLOSED BEFORE DISCONNECTING WATER FEED LINE.
• Insert the new motor in the distiller body and reattach with the new kep nuts.
• Connect the wires to the locations where the old wires were removed from using the same wire routes.  If you are unsure of where they should be connected, refer to the electrical schematic in your manual.  Ensure the wires do not interfere with fan blade motion.
• Turn blade by hand to check for obstructions. Reattach covers. Ensure impurities drain valve is closed.  Reattach water feed line if it was removed and open saddle valve.

The distiller should now operate properly. If it does not, confirm that the wires are connected to the proper location by referring to your electrical schematic.

If they appear correct, we suggest you take your distiller to an authorized service representative, or call 1-780-477-1328 ask for service.
