tems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with
comDressed air.
@ some mixtur€s ol air and R-134a have becn
shown to be combuslible at olsvated pressures and can
result in lire or explosion causing iniury or property
damage. Never use compressed air to prgssure test R-
13i[a service equipment or vehicle air conditioner sys.

changes, peeling or other damage. lf there is dam-
age, replace the clutch set.

ing the rotor pulley by hand. Replace the clutch set
with a new one if it is noisy or has excessive play/drag.

the armature plate all the way around. lf the clear-
ance is not within specified limits, the armature plate
must be removed and shims added or removed as
required, following the procedure on page 22-66.
Cloarance: 0.5 t 0.15 mm {0.020 t 0.q)6 in)
