MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Disconnect the power supply before performing any service or maintenance.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
Removing the cooling media
Remove the cooling pads to access the inside of the cooler.
1. Remove the bolts connecting the pad retainer bar (pad side) from the housing.
2. Cold Front 400, 401, and 500 models: Remove top pads.
3. Starting with the center pad(s), tilt pads from the top and lift out of the cooler.
NOTE: Reinstall pads correctly according to the markings on the pads.

Daily maintenance

After each use, turn off the pump about 15 minutes before the fan is turned off to allow the pads to drain and dry
out. This controls mildew and bacteria growth for a long and efficient pad life. Drain the water from the cooler if it
will be unused for a prolonged period of time.

Periodic maintenance

Shut down the cooler and drain the water sump regularly. Depending on how often you operate the cooler,
drain the sump anywhere from every week (heavy use) to monthly (light use). The cooling pads act as a filter to
remove dust and other particles from the incoming air stream. Collected particles and any water impurities will
flow into the sump and collect there. To keep the cooler operating at peak efficiency, keep the cooling media
and sump clear of debris. Water treatment tablets are available at bigassfans.com.
Draining the water sump
1. Close water flow valve and open drain valve or remove drain plug located at bottom of reservoir.
2. Run pump until sump is dry, and then immediately shut off pump.
3. Turn cooler off and disconnect the power supply.
4. Remove cooling pads.
5. Clean out reservoir with either a towel or wet/dry vacuum.
6. Remove the water spray bar and its plug. Ensure holes are free of debris.
7. Reinstall pads and pad retainer.
Ensure the cooling pads are kept clean and dust-free. Dust and other particles have an adverse effect on the
pads' ability to introduce water into the air stream. If the pad surface is dirty, clean with a soft brush and water.
Never use bleach.
Storage
1. Remove cooling pads and clean with a soft brush and water to remove dust and debris.
2. Drain sump and wipe dry.
3. Store cooler in a dry area and cover to prevent dust buildup.
