Assembly Requirements
Special Tools
Most repairs can be made using normal hand tools. However, the use of a powered screwdriver will prove
invaluable.
A volt/ohmmeter is necessary for troubleshooting the electrical system. A good digital meter will simplify taking the
necessary readings.
120 VAC models will require high potential testing after making repairs to the electrical components.
