These scans were originally uploaded to the Yahoo group by plaza4044 quite a few years ago. As that group is now non functional, I was reminded by Travis I had the scans, so have made them available here. They contain not only the well known CA training film excerpts, but detailed information about rebuilding and servicing DR units - the kind of thing GE didn't want servicemen doing. Also included are compressor specifications for all the prewar GE models. Direct download link www.cool386.com/ge_service/ge_service.html |

Yes thanks so much for making this data available. Does anyone know where we can get the entire books pages? This is really good stuff. I have found other books from these same people on the web but no trace of this particular book.

I now have the 1947 edition of this book, with many thanks to Travis. New scans have been uploaded; the contents, introduction, and a section on capillary tubes. This is different to the previous 1949 edition scans. As the book is 296 pages long, it would be impractical for me to scan and host the whole thing, but I'm working towards including all the information, excluding the individual chapters on specific brands. The GE chapter has of course already been done and does not differ between editions. Use the link above, or the direct file link members.iinet.net.au/~cool386/ge_service/N&C%20Introduction.zip |

I noticed on the last page of the copy Travis sent cablehack they talk about servicing Westinghouse units that have a stuck unloader solenoid. The say if it is stuck shut the easy fix is to remove the high side float and just replace it with a cap tube so it will unload through the cap tube. About 7' of .032 for so2 systems and about 6' for r-12. Haven't tried to research what the hp and BTU of these machines are but it might be one of the only places I have seen cap tube a size mentioned fore so2.

I believe it is not in the pages that have been scanned by cablehack yet. Here is a quick scan of the page. Also noticed they used a capacitor transformer.  |

Best regards, Thomas All the scanned manuals I have are here members.iinet.net.au/~cool386/ge_service/ge_service.htmlIt sounds like you're after the GE information that deals with DR units, which is here members.iinet.net.au/~cool386/ge_service/sealed_units.zip. This is from the 1949 edition but is the same as the 1947. |

Cablehack,
You are correct, I am after the DR sections.
Here's what I bump into when I follow the link you provided:
"We can't find the page you requested. (Error 404)

Do I need to be a member to get in?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is the hosting site gone or just down? I believe I have copies. Do we have a place to post?
