PRECAUTIONS
1. When handling refrigerant (R-12), the following precautions should be observed:
(1) Always wear goggles.
(2) Keep the refrigerant container (service drum) below 40°C (i04°F). (3) Do not handle refrigerant in an enclosed area where there is an open flame. (4) Discharge refrigerant slowly when purging the system. (5) Be careful that liquid refrigerant does not get on your skin. 2. if liquid refrigerant gets in the eyes or on the skin:
(1) Do not rob. (2) Wash the area with a lot of cool water.
(3) Rush to physician or hospital for immediate professional treatment.
(4) Do not attempt to treat yourself. 3. When connecting the refrigerant lines:
(1) Apply a few drops of compressor oil onto the O-ring fittings.
(2) Tighten the nut using two wrenches to avoid twisting the tube.
(3) Tighten the O-ring fitting to the specified torque.

CHECKING OF REFRIGERATION SYSTEM WITH MANIFOLD GAUGE
This is a method in which the trouble is located by using a
manifoid gauge.
Read the manifold gauge pressure with the following estab
lished conditions:
(1) Temperature at the air inlet is 30 - 35°C (86 - 95°F) (2) Engine running at 1,500 rpm
(3) Blower speed set at high (4) Temperature control lever
NOTE:
v It should be noted that the gauge indications may vary

Allow to :stand for some time and then restart operation to determine if trouble is: caused by moisture or dirt.
If caused by moisture refer to step 2 on page AC-6.
lf caused by dirt, remove expansion valve and clean off dirt by blowing with air. lf unable to remove dirt, replace valve.
Vacuum purge and charge new refrigerant to proper amount.
For gas leakage from heat sensing tube, replace expansion valve.
