7. Remove evaporator from inside the freezer.
8. Clean end of suction line and cap tube. Straighten
line and slightly bend toward front of cabinet to aid in
installing shield.
9. Cut a small "X" in heat shield, then slide cap tube
and suction line through hole. Pack heat shield in
back corner of liner. (See Figure 7-8 )
NOTE: You may need to use a small pair of vise-grips
on the suction line to help hold the heat shield in place.
10. Transfer defrost heater from old evaporator to new
evaporator.
11. Slide evaporator in place with heat shield located
behind the evaporator. This will help hold shield in
place.
Always use the TORCH GUARD heat shield part
number 5304418872, behind evaporator before
attempting to solder. The excessive heat from
soldering will warp the plastic liner.
12. Place cap tube in new evaporator and weld in place.
13. Place suction line for freezer evaporator in new
evaporator and weld in place.
14. Remove pressure regulator. Place suction line for
ice maker evaporator in jumper tube provided in kit,
and weld in place.
(Jumper tube is Part# 242036701)
15. With a sharp knife, cut along a seam on the heat
shield from center hole to edge of shield. Slide shield
from between liner, drain trough and suction line
assembly.
16. Push evaporator back in place.
17. Slide fan and bracket assembly in place and
connect defrost heater. Mount limit switch on
evaporator. Plug wiring harness into connector on
liner.
18. Replace filter-drier. Pump down and recharge
system.
DO NOT unbraze old filter-drier from system. This
will vaporize and drive moisture from desiccant
back into system. The old filter-drier should be cut
out of system.
19. Allow product to run and make sure refrigerant is
circulating. Reinstall evaporator cover and machine
compartment cover.
