Skid Plate Replacement
a.
The skid plate is designed to protect the coil and may require replacement after long
periods of use. There is no requirement to remove the skid plate to clean inside during routine
maintenance or operation. To exchange the skid plate:
•
Remove the skid plate using fingers to lever one side away from the coil. Place a
match stick in the opening or something soft that will not mark the coil or skid plate.
•
Move around the circumference of the coil using fingers to lever the skid plate away
from the coil. Insert additional match sticks to stop the skid plate from re-attaching
to the coil. The skid plate can then be removed from the coil
Note
Do not use a knife, screwdriver or any other steel objects to remove the skid plate. This could
mark or damage the coil or skid plate.
•
Re-attach the skid plate by positioning the skid plate underneath the coil and then
pressing it into position.
