4. Installation of discharge valve body 
1) Replace the O-ring and gasket with new ones. 
Apply compressor oil to the new O-ring and gasket and 
properly assemble them. 
Note 
l Fit the gasket as shown left while checking that its 
top side faces upward. 
2) Carefully install the discharge valve body on the com- 
pressor and finger tighten the six M6 bolts. 
Note 
Bolt torquing sequence 
l Torque the two socket head bolts (A) to the specifi- 
cation. 
l Torque the four bolts (B) in a diagonal manner to 
the specification.

Discharge Valve Replacement 
1. Removal of discharge valve 
Carefully remove the discharge valve body. 
Remove the bolts, then remove the discharge valve plate and 
discharge valve. 
Note 
l Do not allow the removed bolts to drop into the suc- 
tion port. 
2. Installation of discharge valve 
Install the discharge valve and the discharge valve plate. 
Install the bolts and tighten them to the specified torque. 
Tightenlng torque: 2.94 N-m (30 cm-kg, 26 In-lb) 
Note 
l The machined cylinder surface and the rear plate 
must be clean and free from foreign material. 
l Do not use the removed O-rlng and gasket again. 
l Check that the installed discharge valve is proper- 
ly seated and aligned. 
l Install the discharge valve body with the new O-ring 
and gasket referring to the lnstructlon for the ther- 
mal protector replacement. 
l Make sure that the suction and discharge ports are 
plugged with the caps.

Note 
l Removal of the clutch pulley and coil is not 
necessary. 
2. Remove the felt seal and snap ring. 
3. Remove the shim(s). 
4. Insert the 
SST into the compressor aligning the cutout of 
the 
SST with the groove of the seal plate. 
5. Rotate the 
SST counterclockwise to make sure that the 
cutout is engaged with the seal plate. 
6. Pull out the seal plate. 
7. Insert the 
SST into the compressor aligning the cutout of 
the 
SST with the metal pawl of the shaft seal.

IO. Lay down the compressor and clean the shaft seal contact- 
ing face of the compressor with cleaning solvent. 
Caution 
l Keep the cleaning solvent and dirt out of the com- 
pressor. 
l Do not use any cloth for cleaning. 
Clean only by rinsing with the solvent. 
l Do not spill the refrigerant oil from the compressor. 
Refill the same amount of the oil if the oil is spilled 
out.

11. Clean the new shaft seal throughly with cleaning solvent. 
12. Lubricate the shaft seal with refrigerant oil (SUNISO 5GS 
or equivalent) and install it on the 
SST. 
Note 
l Use only clean refrigerant oil. 
l Do not touch the sealing surfaces of the shaft seal 
after lubricated.

16. First, slide the seal plate into the compressor by hand as 
far as possible. 
17. Press the seal plate with grip side of the 
SST. 
18. Install the snap ring with its chamfered edge inside. 
19. Press the snap ring with the grip side of the 
SST, then in- 
stall the felt seal. 
20. Make sure the snap ring is seated correctly in its groove. 
21. Install the shim(s). 
22. Install the armature plate. 
Measure the clearance between the pulley and armature 
plate all the way around. 
If the clearance is not as specified, add or remove the shim 
as required.
