Figure 7 - Install A/C Compressor Manifold
Compressor Manifold – Read the precautions below, BEFORE installing the
compressor manifold. To install the manifold remove the bolts & protective
cap, being sure to leave the o-rings in place on compressor. Apply anti-seize
to the threads of the two 8mm-1.25 x 25mm socket head cap screws. Place
manifold on compressor and attach with the two 8mm cap screws and
tighten firmly. Attach compressor lines at this point or seal off threaded ends
of manifold.
IMPORTANT
• Only remove sealed cap on compressor and install manifold if you plan on
charging your system immediately, leaving the compressor open to outside
air can introduce moisture into the system causing the cooling system not to
operate properly.
• Never connect the compressor clutch wire and run the compressor unless
the system is charged. Serious damage may occur to compressor. Do not
install the manifold unless you are going to finish installing the a/c hoses and
never connect the compressor clutch wire until system is ready to charge
with Freon.
• Although the compressor is supplied with oil, the level may not be correct
for the entire system. Consult the instruction manual of the air conditioning
unit for proper levels and system charging procedures.
• Billet Specialties recommends having your air conditioning charged and
serviced by an automotive air conditioning service center with the proper
equipment to ensure many years of proper operation.
