- Place the cylinder shaft assembly on the
bench with the rear-side facing up. Ensure the front and the rear parts do
not get mixed up. The front and rear parts are similar.
- Coat the new gaskets and O-rings with compressor oil prior to
installation.
Important: Ensure that the rear suction valve is aligned with the valve escape
groove of each cylinder.
- Install the rear suction valve so that it is aligned with the alignment
pin.
- Install the rear valve plate, the new
gasket, and the new O-ring on the rear cylinder head.
- Install the rear cylinder head on the
cylinder shaft assembly.
- Turn the cylinder shaft assembly with the rear cylinder head installed
over on the bench so that it is front-side up.
Important: Ensure that the front suction valve is aligned with the valve escape
groove of each cylinder.
- Install the front suction valve into the cylinder shaft assembly.
- Install the front valve plate, the suction
valve, a new gasket and a new O-ring on the front cylinder head.
- Install the front cylinder head on the cylinder shaft assembly.
In order to get the front cylinder head to seat in the cylinder shaft assembly,
you may need to lightly tap the front cylinder head with a plastic mallet.
- Install new washers and body bolts into
the front cylinder head.
Tighten
Tighten the body bolts to 20-24 N·m (14.5-17.3 lb ft).
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Tighten the body bolts in sequence. Each bolt should be gradually
tightened in three or more stages to ensure the correct torque.
- Rotate the drive shaft by hand 2-3
times to ensure that the shaft turns smoothly after tightening the body bolts.
- Install new O-rings, the oil drain, and
the fill plugs.
Tighten
Tighten the oil drain and the fill plugs to 13-15N·m (9.4-10.8 lb ft).
- Install the compressor magnetic clutch
and the pulley. Refer to
Compressor Magnetic Clutch
.
- Fill the compressor with oil through the suction-side hose connector.
Use the quantity of oil shown on the information plate that is attached to
the compressor housing.
- Turn the drive shaft 2-3 times by hand to ensure
the following:
• | The shaft rotates smoothly. |
• | Any oil in the cylinders is removed. |
- Install the compressor onto the engine.
- Perform a leak test on the compressor. Refer to
Leak Testing
or the coach manufacturer's service
manual for leak testing procedures.
