      Returning guest presenter Aaron Wilson is back for another exciting discussion. This time, we'll be talking about...
      The Science of CYA: How to Keep the Customer Safe, Document Your Work, and Not Get Sued
      We take on a lot of liability as appliance repair techs, and that can get us into sticky situations whether we've done anything wrong or not. Aaron will be teaching us all about how to navigate this side of the trade.
      We'll start by going over a tragic, real-world case study where a sloppy installation had lethal results, analyzing exactly how the installer's negligence caused this. From there, our scope will expand to what kind of safety precautions we should implement in our own work, both for the customer's sake and for our own.
      But even if you do everything perfectly, there's still the famous "technician witch hunt." Well, we'll also talk about how to deal with that by thoroughly documenting your work and putting yourself beyond legal reproach.
      A little about our guest, Aaron Wilson:
      Aaron has been in the appliance repair trade for about 15 years, starting out by doing installations before moving on to bigger and better things. He worked for C&W Services as a Sub-Zero authorized servicer for a time and thereafter joined Mr. Appliance of Highland Park in the Dallas area, where he worked for years as the lead technician and field service manager. These days, he's making sure that all the appliances of everyone's favorite fried chicken place are in tip-top shape as the Quality and Performance Consultant for the southwest branch of Chick-fil-A. In addition, he has taught many classes on refrigeration repair and advanced diagnostics, during which time he also developed training material for the soft skills side of things, which he is delighted to share with you. On top of all that he's a certified graduate of the Master Samurai Tech Academy, so he knows his stuff!

Can't find any technical information on this refrigerator.

I'm looking for the service manual or tech.sheet.parts list.

It's not one I see everyday.

It needs a evaporator motor.

Anybody work on one of these.

Thanks for any help you have.

My request is for a manual or tech sheet parts list.

Have you ever worked on one?

once again.... only ask for manuals here.... ANY other questions pertaining to repair... including "have you worked on one of these" are to be made in the repair forum. You must create two threads... one for questions and one for manual.... did you read the above link?

We will consider this your manual request... Summit manuals are hard to come by, but we will search for it.

Hi Walter, I've worked on a few Summit appliances before but not their refrigerators. Summit manuals are not in wide circulation and there's not a lot of their stuff out there relative to the other brands. But, in my experience, Summit has been pretty good about emailing me manuals when I've needed them. Their tech support is semi-competent but willing to help and will talk to you if you identify yourself as a professional servicer. Their contact info is here: http://www.summitappliance.com/contact

BTW, if they call on you for warranty work, they pay well and quickly, and you don't need to sign a contract with them.

Well, what'd you say to piss them off this time, baaaaaayBEH!  :dazzler:  :rock_band:

 

But seriously, that is weird. They've always been helpful to me. Maybe it's because I always sing the Safety Dance to them on the phone...

Per their Tech Support line, they only have Service manuals for the washers and dryers.  That means that the refrigerators are made by someone else who doesn't communicate with them.
