INSTALLATION
Reverse removal procedure to install compressor assembly not-
ing the following instructions.
If compressor was replaced, pour new compressor oil with
the same amount as that drained from compressor.
Refer to “REPLENISHING COMPRESSOR OIL” in this sec-
tion.
Install P/S pump referring to “P/S PUMP” in Section 3B1.
Evacuate and charge system. Refer to “EVACUATING” and
“CHARGING” in this section. CAUTION:

Magnet Clutch
INSPECTION
Check the following items.
Check no sigh of compressor oil leakage
Check magnet clutch pulley bearing for noise and grease
leakage.
Check magnet clutch operation as follows :
a) Connect battery (1) and ammeter (2) to compressor (3) as
shown.
b) Check that steadily locks between armature plate (4) and
magnet clutch pulley (5).
c) Check that ammeter (2) indicates specified current.
Specified current of magnet clutch :
4A MAX at 12V
If any detects are found, repair or replace magnet clutch assem-
bly.
