14. With sharp knife, cut along seam on heat shield from
center hole to edge of shield. Slide shield from
between liner, drain trough and suction line
assembly.
15. Push evaporator back in place and reinstall plastic
clamp at top. (See Figure 4.)
16. Slide fan and bracket assembly in place and
connect defrost heater. Mount limit switch on
evaporator. Plug wiring harness into connector on
liner.
17. Replace Drier-Filter. Pump down and recharge

7. Use 1/4” drill bit to drill hole through cabinet from
inside at location shown in Figure 2.
8. Use 1/2” drill bit to open hole drilled in Step 7 to
1/2” from back of product. (See Figure 2.)
9. Remove stubs of old heat exchanger from evapora-
tor and install new heat exchanger into evaporator.
Push heat exchanger

To replace the heat exchanger:
1. Recover refrigerant from sealed system.
2. Disconnect wiring harness at liner plug.
3. Remove defrost limiter and disconnect defrost
heater.
HEAT EXCHANGER REPLACEMENT
CAUTION: Always use the TORCH GUARD
heat shield behind evaporator before attempt-
ing to solder. The excessive heat from solder-
ing will warp the plastic liner.
The original heat exchanger (Suction Line & Cap Tube
Assembly) in this product is enclosed in the insulation
between the liner and the cabinet back. Because of this,
the original part can not be removed. There is a service
kit to bypass the internal heat exchanger. It will be
necessary to run a new heat exchanger down the back
