AA"WHEN DISCONNECTING THE SUCTION PIPE,
LIQUID PIPE B, AND THE EXPANSION VALVE
To prevent the entry of dust or other foreign bodies, plug
the dismantled hose and the nipples of the expansion valves.
Caution
As the compressor oil and receiver are highly moisture
absorbent, use a non-porous material to plug the hose
and nipples.

"BASNAP RING INSTALLATION
Using snap ring pliers, fit the snap ring so that the snap
ring’s tapered part is on the outside.
"CASELF-LOCKING NUT INSTALLATION
Using a special tool, as when removing the nut, secure the
armature and tighten the self-locking nut.
"DAAIR GAP ADJUSTMENT
Apply voltage from the battery to the magnetic clutch and
check that the clutch air gap is inside the type. value.
If outside the type. value, use a shim to adjust the gap.
Standard value: 0.3 – 0.5 mm
NOTE
The shims are available in 0.05 mm steps across the thickness
range 0.35 - 0.70 mm, and in 0.1 mm steps of thickness.
INSPECTION
Cooling temperature switch
1. Dip the metal part of the cooling temperature switch into
engine oil and increase the oil temperature using a gas
burner or similar.
Caution
Do not heat more than necessary.
2. When the oil temperature reaches the type. value, check
that voltage is supplied between the terminals.
