FRED Carbo Help & Support

Unpack Unit

Location Selection

1. Designate a location for the unit near the operator that is sufficiently close to a grounded power source.

Installation

1. Each machine is wired for correct rotation:
   • If motor is serviced, restart the unit.
   • Confirm motor is turning in the correct direction. (See indication arrow marked on motor).
2. If not already installed, install the carbon canisters onto the plenum:
   • The canisters are held in place with a safety bar to prevent accidental tipping.
   • Once in place install the safety filter around the canister.

Before you use your unit, you’ll want to perform a function test to verify it’s in working order.

1. Confirm correct Voltage and Amperes
2. Check that the Carbon Filter is properly installed.
3. Turn the power switch to “On” for a few seconds and check that the motor rotation is correct.
4. Look to confirm that the unit is level and stable. Verify nothing is obstructing extraction path.
5. Start the unit.
6. Listen closely to the motor and suction sound of the unit. Are they within the expected noise limits?
7. Place hand on top of the unit and feel for any unexpected vibration. Place your hand in front of the intake surface to confirm the expected levels of suction.

Daily Inspection

   • Wipe down as needed.
2. Inspect carbon filters for signs of dust buildup:
