HIGH-PRESSURE FLEXIBLE HOSE HIGH-PRESSURE FLEXIBLE HOSE : Removal and Installation


CAUTION:
Perform lubricant return operation before each refrigeration system disassembly. However, if a large amount of refrigerant or lubricant is detected, never perform lubricant return operation. Perform Lubricant Return Operation.

REMOVAL
1. Use a refrigerant collecting equipment (for HFC-134a) to discharge the refrigerant. Recycle Refrigerant.
2. Remove air cleaner case (LH). Exploded View.





3. Remove mounting bolt (A) from high-pressure flexible hose (1).





4. Disconnect one-touch joint between high-pressure flexible hose
(1) and condenser pipe assembly (2) with disconnector (A)
(SST: J-45815).

CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the joint of the A/C piping with suitable material such as vinyl tape to avoid the entry of air.





5. Remove mounting nut (A), and then remove high-pressure flexible hose (1).

CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the joint of the A/C piping and compressor with suitable material such as vinyl tape to avoid the entry of air.

INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION:
- Replace O-rings with new ones. Then apply compressor oil to them when installing.
- Female-side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side piping straight in axial direction.
- Insert piping securely until a click is heard.
- After piping connection is completed, pull male-side piping by hand to check that connection does not come loose.
- Check for leakages when recharging refrigerant. Leak Test.
