[. . . ] This does not mean that all the refrigerant has been recovered as there may be refrigerant trapped in the A/C system which will slowly evaporate. The compressor will restart automatically and recover this refrigerant. When the GAUGES remain at 0 PSI or below for at least 2 minutes recovery is complete. Note: The compressor will cycle ON/OFF due to internal machine pressure transition while performing the 2 minute outgas check. ) Close the low side and the high side manifold valves and proceed to the next step. If additional operations will be performed, continue to the next function. If no further operations are to be performed at this time, turn the FUNCTION SELECTOR to the OFF position and turn master power off. Drain the RECOVERED OIL into the measuring bottle by turning the RECOVERED OIL DRAIN VALVE to the OIL DRAIN position. This amount of new oil may be placed back into the A/C system. NOTE: If the unit stops during recovery and the RED TANK FULL light illuminates, your storage tank is full and must be replaced. All new tanks must be evacuated before use. EVACUATION (VACUUM) PROCEDURE 1. With power connected and both service hoses connected to the A/C system, turn the MASTER POWER SWITCH ON and turn the FUNCTION SELECTOR to the VACUUM position. Turn the VACUUM PUMP TIMER SWITCH to the desired operating time, the GREEN vacuum pump light will illuminate and the vacuum pump will turn on. (NOTE: The vacuum pump will not operate if there is pressure in the A/C system or unit plumbing. If this occurs, recover the refrigerant in the A/C system or unit plumbing and restart vacuum. ) 3. Open both manifold valves and evacuate the system for the set time. (NOTE: The scale may be programmed for the charge amount at this time. ) 5. When the evacuation is complete, close the gauge valves and check for vacuum leaks. 7 8 OIL CHARGE PROCEDURE IMPORTANT: THIS IS VACUUM SIDE OIL CHARGE. ONLY PUT THE AMOUNT OF OIL TO BE CHARGED IN THE BOTTLE FOR EACH JOB. ALLOW ENOUGH TIME FOR THE OIL TO CLEAR THE SERVICE HOSES BEFORE RESUMING VACUUM. Put the desired amount of oil in the bottle and start the vacuum operation. Allow the vacuum pump to run for 5 minutes then turn the VACUUM/OIL CHARGE valve to the CHARGE position (DO NOT TURN THE VACUUM PUMP OFF). The oil will be drawn into the A/C system by the vacuum in the A/C system.
