COMPRESSOR

Reinstalling the original Compressor

1. Drain and measure the refrigerant oil

contained in the compressor.

2. Charge oil through the discharge port of the

compressor with the same amount of new

refrigerant oil.

NOTE:

If the amount of oil in the original compressor was

not checked, then approximately 120cc of new oil

should be added to the compressor being installed.

(This is assuming the compressor being installed

has first been drained).

INSTALLING A NEW COMPRESSOR

1. Drain and measure refrigerant oil from the

original compressor drain plug.

2. Drain factory installed refrigerant oil from new

Compressor drain plug (total lubricant quantity 265

cc).

3. Measure the same amount of new refrigerant oil

that was drained from the original compressor.

Install this amount of oil into the new compressor

through the suction / discharge port whilst turning

the compressor clutch pulley front face.

NOTE:

For installation and drive arrangement refer

Engine section.

EVAPORATOR OR CONDENSER

Drain as much of the original oil as possible from

the evaporator or condenser. Add the same

amount of new refrigerant oil, either to the

original or new evaporator or condenser.

If replacing condenser - add approximately 20cc

oil. If replacing evaporator - add approximately

20cc oil.

FILTER - DRIER RECEIVER (FDR)

If replacing the FDR - add approximately 20cc oil.

The FDR must be replaced whenever the system

has been opened to the atmosphere for repair.

BLOWN OR RUPTURED PIPE / HOSE

When replacement is required add approximately

10 cc oil each. If slow leak through any joint.
