2. Recovery / recycling equipment and tank.
3. Vacuum external pump.
4. Stopper tool able to produce closure in leakage test.
5. Process adapter equipment (Robinair No. 12458).
6. Complete Presto-O-Lite torch.
7. Loss detector.
8. Tube cutter.
9. Three side small file.
10. Emeril cloth or "Scotch Brite".
11. Welding with welding compound.

Evacuation and reload equipment installation
1. Disconnect the electric current unit.
2. Fix an approved self - threaded line extraction valve to the process tube. Connect the refrigerant recovery system
to the valve. Run the recovery system, open the line extraction valve and allow the refrigerant pass to an approved
tank.
3. If the compressor was replaced, install an adequate size process tube adapter in the process tube. If the compressor
was not replaced, cut the process tube with a tube cutter, leaving as much tube as possible, though removing the line
extraction valve installed to take away the refrigerant. Install the right size process tube adapter.
4. Put the refrigeration service manometer multiple in the system, in the following manner (See figure C9)
