Repairing general conditions
The replacement (reparation) operations of the weldable elements described in this chapter
are specified subject to: cutting out of the parts to be replaced, access to the welded elements,
tools and checking devices accessibility , etc.
In case the vehicle body has suffered important deformations it is recommended the straight-
ening of the damaged body elements, by means of some hydraulic presses.
For this range of vehicles, the elements resistance structure which are affecting the vehicle
s ecurity, are not to be partially replaced (not to be cut), but entirely.
After welding detaching, the body elements must remain straight, without breakage or cracks,
the possible holes being covered out with filling material or by tinning. The body elements sur-
faces are to be pickled ( to eliminate possible oxidation marks), dried and initially applied a paint
layer. The electric welding detaching of the body elements, may be performed as follows:
- with a well sharpen c hisel, t his method may lead t o parts de formation or e ven pa rts
breaking. - by using some extractors equipped with steel cutter type Brendeo or Pickvant (max. 6
mm) having the cutting head shaped as shown in pict.1.
1. Centering point
2. Sharpen slope
3. Drill acting edges
4. Gap for catching the welding material
P = aprox. 0.4 mm
Whatever m ethod is used, the remaining element must be in good order and to a llow per-
forming of a good quality welding point.
The plates cutting it is recommended to be performed (subject of importance and thickness)
using manual scissors or pneumatic portable tools for plates cutting. During cutting or welding of the body elements it is necessary to protect the electric wiring
from the interior of the body structure. The cutting, welding, or strengthening operation done on body welded elements, are to be
performed on body checking/ straightening benches recommended by the producer.
IMP ORTANT !
When removing or straightening the body resistance elements, it i s forbidden the
total or partial heating, in order to avoid the mechanical resistance and metal elastic-
ity de creasing.

AIR CONDITIONING
62 - 1
General
The purpose of the air conditioning unit is to produce a decrease of the tempera ture in t he
passengers compartment a nd to obt ain a l ower value tempera ture c ompare d to the e xterna l
environment one, reducing in the same time the air moisture.
MAINTENANCE
For a vehicle equipped with air conditioning, during the year it is recommended:-the checking of the refrigerant fluid filling;
- the cleaning and the air-blowing of the condenser and the cooling radiator fins;
- the checking of the condensation removal pipe on order not to be clogged.
For important leakage repair, for any components replacement (compressor, condenser, etc)
and if moisture was noticed in the air conditioning circuit, replace the dryer filter tank and drain
the unit; the same is valid also in case the conditioning circuit remains open without protection
covers more than 10 minutes.
IMPORTANT !
During winter, it is recommended the frequent start of the system, in order to prolong
the lifetime of t he compressor and of the whole system.
T he vehicle equipped with an air c onditioning system shall be not exposed for more
than 20 minutes i n painting c abin where there are temperatures higher than 80 °C.
It is obligatory the use of t he refrigerating agent and compressor oil type prescribed
by the manufacturer.
It is absolutely forbidden to perform welding works on the elements of the ai r condition
circ uits.
The fi lling of the air c onditioning system c an be pe rformed only by means of c harging
units and observing the instructions of the manufacturer. For mechanical or body
operations it is recommended piping protection in order to avoid t heir disconnection
by accident.
Avoid the drip of the oil compressor on the painted vehicle carriage body.
For component replacement implying t he circuit draining, it is absolutely necessary
the use of new parts and of a special oil for compressor.

AIR COND
ITIONING UNIT
GENERAL METHOD OF O NE ELEMENT REPLACEMENT OF THE AIR CONDITONING UNIT
DISMOUNTIN G
Make the unit functioning for at least 10 minutes (if the unit permits).
Drain the circuit in the charging equipment.
Measure the quantity of recovered refrigerated fluid.
Release the access to the component that is needed to be changed.
Disconnect the connections.
In order to avoid the moisture infiltration, protect with protection covers.
Dismount the component.
REMOU NT I NG
Apply special compressor oil on the new e lements thread and on the gaskets.
AT TENTION !
T he new components must be obligatory provided with protection covers.
Remove the protection covers, connect t he new component on the free connection,
and tighten it by hand.
Place the component correctly.
Tighten it to the required moment.
Refi ll with refrigerant fluid and oil recommended by the manufacturer.
The filling up with oil for different repairs is to be performed as follows: add in the charging
equipment container, the recovered oil quantity, plus an oil quantity, as it follows:
- sudden damaged of one of the unit’s element or leakage...............................100 ml
- condenser re placement ............................................................................... 30 ml
- evaporator replacement............................................................................... 30 ml
- dryer filter replacement................................................................................ 15 ml
- pipe re placement......................................................................................... 10 ml
For compressor dismounting/remounting without replacement add 120 ml.
If there are signs of moisture in the air conditioning circuit, replace the dryer filter tank.

Draining – filling the refrigerant circuit
DRA I NING
Connect the charging equipment piping to the filling-draining valves.
Perform the vacuuming of the air condition unit with the recovering of the oil and the refriger-
ant fluid. Close the hoses valves.
Disconnect the charging equipment piping and stop the equipment.
FILLIN G
Attach the draining – filling hoses of the equipment to the air conditioning unit valves.
Put compressor specific oil t ype SP 10 in the charging equipment vessel.
Set the quantity of the refrigerant fluid that must be charged (0,6 Kg).
Observe the filling instructions prescribed by the equipment producer.
