 INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal. ■ CAUTION ■ - Replace O‐rings with new ones. Then apply compressor oil to them when installing.
- Female‐side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male‐side piping straight in axial direction.
- Insert piping securely until a click is heard.
- After piping connection is completed, pull male‐side piping by hand to make sure that connection does not come loose.
- Check for leakages when recharging refrigerant.
