NOTE
There are two compartments within the MTRCS to allow for cooling and freezing of
perishable items. Each compartment is operated independently of the other and has
a separate evaporator unit.
Each evaporator contains two evaporator blower motor capacitors. Removal and
reinstallation of the capacitors is the same for each evaporator. The replacement
procedure for each evaporator addresses removal of one blower motor capacitor
only.
1. Open control panel assembly door (Figure 1, Item 1).
2. On control box, place COMPARTMENT 1 ON/OFF rocker switch (Figure 1, Item 2) to OFF position.
3. Place COMPARTMENT 2 ON/OFF rocker switch (Figure 1, Item 3) to OFF position.
4. Place POWER ON/DOWN switch (Figure 1, Item 4) to DOWN position.

MTRCS doors are very heavy and solid objects. Make sure rear doors are secured to
container frame when in the open position. A gust of wind can cause unsecured
doors to slam shut with great force possibly causing severe injury or death to
personnel.
