OPERATION
Piace the RT100 ina workingareawith a minimum of4 inchclearance inthe rear. The refrigeration
system isair cooled mrd pulls air across the refrigerationcompressor and outthe condenseropenings in
therear.CAUTION:Inlet and outletopeningsshouldnever be blocked.
Plugiinecordintoproperlyratedreceptacie5 and turnpowerswitch toit's "on" position.Check air flow
exitingfrom the rearvent to insureproperoperation. If unitappears to vibrateexcessively,checkline
voltage to insurethat itis above 108 volts, Low linevoltagewillcausecompressor to cycle on thermal
overload If unit is shut off afterrunning forany length of time, and turned on againwithin afew minutes,
it may vibrate.Shui the unit off and allowapproximately 5 minutes for the compressor to stabilizebefore
turning on aga;n. The temperature ofthe steeltrapshouldreachmaximum low point in approximately 30
minutes,CAUTION;Thisrefrigeratedtrapmust be "on" at least one hourprior to vacuumpumpbeing
turned"on".Alwaysstartwith a clean dry trap. A chemicaltrap in addition tothe coldtrapmust be used
forcorrosivevapors.Failure to complywillvoidwarranty,
