  • Page 539 CHEROKEE ARROW III SERVICE MANUAL 14-5. SPECIAL SERVICING PROCEDURES. The air conditioning system should be serviced by a qualified shop with trained personnel. The following procedure and precautions should be observed. The efficiency of this system depends upon the pressure-temperature relationship of pure refrigerant. As long as the system contains only pure refrigerant plus a specified amount of compressor oil (which is mixed with the refrigerant) it is considered to be chemically stable.
  • Page 540 CHEROKEE ARROW III SERVICE MANUAL Figure 14-2. Service Valves NOTE A very strong acid (HCL) is formed when R-12 comes in contact with moisture. A new receiver-dehydrator should be opened and connected to the system only when ready to charge the system with refrigerant.

Turn cylinder sight glass to match pressure reading on cylinder pressure gauge. This scale should be used during entire charging operation.
  • Page 548 CHEROKEE ARROW III SERVICE MANUAL Figure 14-8. Charging Hookup a. With the system evacuated as outlined in paragraph 14-13, connect the refrigerant charging hose to the manifold (refer to Figure 14-8) and purge the charging hose of air. b. Place the refrigerant container on a scale to observe the amount of refrigerant entering the system.
  • Page 549 CHEROKEE ARROW III SERVICE MANUAL NOTE A shop cloth should be used to divert escaping refrigerant when disconnecting the charging hose from the Schrader valve. Recap the valve. 14-17. ADDITION OF PARTIAL CHARGE TO SYSTEM. It is possible to top off this system with refrigerant by the following method.
  • Page 550 CHEROKEE ARROW III SERVICE MANUAL 14-19. COMPRESSOR REMOVAL. (The removal of the compressor requires a complete system discharge.) See paragraph 14-12. a. The removal instructions for the York compressor are as follows: 1. Be certain the circuit protector is off for the air conditioning system.
  • Page 551 6. The compressor should never be operated with less than 6 ounces of oil. When oil is added, the level should not go above 10 ounces. Piper refrigerant oil PMS-L2000 or equivalent 500 viscosity refrigerant oil must be used.
