REPLACEMENT
1.DISCHARGE REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
a. Turn the A/C switch on.
b. Operate the cooler compressor at an engine rpm of approximately 1,000 for 5 to 6 minutes to
circulate the refrigerant and collect as much compressor oil remaining in each component into the
cooler compressor as possible.
c. Stop the engine.
d. Using SST, discharge refrigerant gas.
