10. Perform the following work while vacuuming (operat-
ing the vacuum pump for 1 hour or longer after the
pressure drops to -14.65 psi (-101 kPa, -755 mmHg)
or lower).
1) Connect the oil tube to the oil tank.
2) Move the No. 1 compressor until the compressor
belt is tight, and tighten 4 bolts lightly.
NOTE) After mounting the compressor, tighten bolts
lightly before giving the tension to the com-
pressor belt, and check that the compressor is
in the correct position.
3) Slide the No. 1 compressor by turning the adjust-
ment bolt to give tension to the compressor belt.
Adjust the belt tension to the standard value, and
tighten 4 bolts firmly.
※ Measure the belt tension with a sonic belt tension gauge. Tension values for a mechanical belt tension gauge
on the chart are reference values.
