Need to clean the mouse nest out of the area above the air filter, and under the outside cover. Then put some oil in the blower lube ports. ( No one ever lubes that motor.) The A/C unit is up against the pod. So I'll have to pull the A/C unit out to get to the front screws that hold the A/C top outside cover on. Been a long time. But as I recall. You remove the inside A/C cover, disconnect the 110, remove two bolts, drop the inside duct work, then pull the A/C unit off the roof. Going to wax the roof in that area while I'm in that area.Bob Dunahugh Iowa78 Royale

Bob,
Depending on the manufacture and model, there may be as many as four fasteners clamping the unit on the roof.
If you are just going to budge it, you may not have to remove the AC, but switch the breaker anyway.
There is also a god chance that no matter how careful you are that the 14" gasket between it and the roof will be damaged. They are usually on a pin in the RV store.
For years window units had a little sticker on the fan motor. (Yellow if Emerson and green if GE.) That said, "Oil motor bears twice yearly with SAE 30 non-detergent oil.) It was easy to see after you removed the first 38 sheet metal screws.
