Panel Latch
P/N 853561
There are four latches on the electronics compartment door and one
on the filter/fans compartment panel. These five latches are identical
and are replaced the same way.
Tool Required
11/16-in. wrench
Removal
1. Open the electronics compartment (refer
to Page 57), or the filter/fans compart-
ment (refer to Page 58) as appropriate.
2. Before removing the latch, notice the
orientation of the latch arm. With the latch in
the “open” position, the arm will point either
up or down, depending on its location on
the door/panel. The new latch should be
oriented the same way.
3. With a 11/16-in. wrench, unscrew and
remove the nut and washer holding the latch
in place (Figure 123).
4. Remove the latch assembly from the front
of the door.
Installation
Note: The latch arm rotates through an arc of about 90°. Install
the latch so that it opens when rotated counter-clockwise, and
locks when rotated clockwise.
1. Make sure the nut and washer are removed from the
new latch.
2. From the front of the panel, insert the latch into its opening.
3. Secure the latch in place with the washer and nut and
tighten securely.
