COMPRESSOR ISOLATION
If you have determined there is no refrigerant leak around
the terminals and the compressor must be replaced, proceed
beginning with Step 1:
1. Shut off suction and discharge service valves to isolate
compressor and slowly remove all refrigerant in com-
pressor. Appropriate service practices should be fol-
lowed to properly reclaim refrigerant removed from the
compressor.
2. Disconnect all electrical wiring to compressor.
3. Unbolt suction and discharge service valves from com-
pressor.
REMINDER: These valves may be sealing off refriger-
ant from the rest of the system. Do not open these valves
without first determining whether there is refrigerant in
the system.
