4. Once Every Three Months, Condenser Maintenance
Cleaning is recommended at least once every three (3) months. However, once a month
is recommended when unit is located near cooking equipment which produces grease
laden vapors, i.e.: fryers, grills, steam kettles, etc.
a. Disconnect power by switching circuit breaker to “OFF” position.
b. Remove the front grille by lifting up and straight out.
c. Use a vacuum cleaner with proper brush attachments, to clean the condenser,
compressor-motor and related parts.
d. In extreme cases of dust and grease build-up, the condenser fins may require
blowing out with compressed air.
e. Turn circuit breaker to “ON” position.
Note:The air cooled condensing unit depends upon the amount of air passing through the
condenser. Grease, lint and dust accumulation reduces required air flow. The
refrigerator will consume less current and operate more efficiently if the condenser is
kept clean.
WARNING:
Failure to keep condenser clean may cause
premature failure of motor/compressor
which will NOT be covered by warranty!
D. Lubrication
Unless otherwise specified, all Victory refrigerators are equipped with oilless type motors.
The compressor motor is a sealed unit and is constantly being lubricated when in operation.
The condenser and the evaporator motors are equipped with “Life-time” oiled bearings.
These bearings are oiled at the factory and need never be oiled again.
