. lf you're installing a new condenser, add refriger-ant oil (SANDEN, SP-10 or DENSO, ND-O|L 8)
\see page 22-22l.-
. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fit-ting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oilbefo.e installing them.
NOTE; Be sure to use the right O-rings for HFC,134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.o Be careful not to damage the condenser finswhen installing the condenser assembly.. Charge the system (see page 22-46), and test itsperformance (see page 22-24i.

o brush holders.
lf there is continuity, replace the brush holder
assemoly.

2. Insert the brush into the brush holder, and b.ing the
brush into contact with the commutator, then attach
a spring scale to the spring. Measure the spring ten-
sion at the moment the spring lifts off the brush.

Brush Inspection
Measure the brush length. lf not within the service limit,
replace the brush (or brush holder assembly).
Brush Length
NOTE: To seat new brushes after installing them in their
holders, slip a strip ot #500 or #600 sandpaper. with the
grit side up, over the commutator and smoothly rotate
the armature. The contact surface of the brushes will be
sanded to the same contour as the commutator.
Overrunning Clutch lnspection
Slide the overrunning clutch along the shaft. Does it
move freely? lf not, replace it.
Rotate the overrunning clutch both ways. Does it
lock in one direction and rotate smoothly in
reverse? lf it does not lock in either direction or it
locks in both directions, replace it.
