section, and disconnect the power and internal
terminals.

7. Disconnect the oil sensor lead wires from the PCB.
8. Draw out the discharge sensor at the top of the
compressor.
(Draw out the resin stopper.)
9. Remove the nuts with washers.
10. Proceed as instructed below to remove the oil from
the suction pipe.
¶ Remove the upper pipe flare of the oil sensor. If
oil oozes out, drain it off until no more comes
out. (Provide a pan to collect the oil.)
¶ After checking the above work, tilt the compres-
sor, remove the lower pipe flare of the oil sensor,
and then remove the oil sensor itself. (The oil
which was in the oil sensor will ooze out at this
point.)
¶ Adjust the angle of tilt, and drain off the liter or so
of oil inside the compressor. (It is OK if no oil
comes out.)
¶ Place the cap over the installation hole of the oil
sensor.
11. Prepare to remove the welded areas.
