6)  After a required amount of lubricant is added, close the oil checking valve to ensure tightness.   
 
 
 
Note: Lubricant is of great importance to the normal running of compressors. You should follow 
Gree’s requirement to add qualified lubricant of the specified trademark and ensure properness 
of fill amount.   
 
Step 14: Vacuum-pump.   
After lubricant is added, keep on extracting air through a vacuum pump till the internal pressure reaches 
the  absolute  pressure  0  kgf/cm
2
  and  the  pressure  gauge  reads  -1  kgf/cm
2
.  This  is  to  ensure  that 
moistures inside the pipeline system are completely vaporized.   
Vacuum pumps of the specifications below are recommended:   
Open all valves in order that the vacuum pump extracts air through all the valves, during which, connect 
the units to a pressure gauge. When the internal pressure reaches 0 kgf/cm
2
 and the pressure gauge 
reads -1 kgf/cm
2
, keep on the extraction action for 0.5~1.0 hour more. Finally, turn off the rotary switch of 
the gauge and close the pump. One hour later, if the pressure remains the same, fill refrigerant. If the 
pressure increases to 0.1 kgf/cm
2
 or higher, conduct leakage check again.   
 
Connect the rubber hose 
to the oil checking valve at 
one end and put the other 
end of the hose into the 
glass for drawing lubricant 
Extract air through all 
valves. In the course of oil 
fill, keep on the extraction 
action
