5.0 SET UP AND OPERATION

5.1 GETTING STARTED

5.1.1 CAUTION: Only personnel who have been properly trained in the use and operation of
refrigeration systems, refrigerants and service equipment should operate this equipment. Failure to
follow proper safety precautions could result in personal injury or death.
5.1.2 CAUTION: Review the full contents of this manual before attempting to use the recovery
machine in actual service.
5.1.3 Identify the refrigerant to be recovered and prepare the recovery unit for use by installing an
approved filter, hoses and scale as per the diagram below. Refer to section 6.0 of this manual for
approved accessories.
5.1.4 Connect the AC power cord to a circuit that is protected by a circuit breaker. Use an extension
cord only when absolutely necessary to perform the service; be sure it is the minimum length
required, that it contains a safety ground wire and that it contains wires sized 16 AWG (1.291 mm) or
larger.
5.1.5 Make sure the recovery unit is set in a stable position and that it is reasonably level; observe
all safety precautions previously noted. Ensure that the fan inlet and discharge areas on both sides of
the machine are clear from obstructions.
5.1.6 Check all connections to ensure they are tight before starting the recovery operation.
5.1.7 The XTR-PRO-DV and XTR-ALTIMA A2L are liquid tolerant recovery machines. It is important
to remember to START the machine before opening the INLET valve. Should the compressor start to
'Knock', close the INLET valve immediately and while it is still running, slowly open the valve again.
5.1.8 Use a refrigerant scale to ensure that the cylinder is not filled to more than 80% of its capacity
by weight. When operating in the NORMAL RECOVERY or PUSH-PULL mode without the cylinder
shutoff it is possible to overfill the cylinder. If you are not sure, check the cylinder weight before
transporting. Refer to section 10.0 of this manual. OVERFILLED CYLINDERS CAN RUPTURE
EXPLOSIVELY!

5.2 NORMAL RECOVERY OPERATION

5.2.1 Connect all cables and hoses as described in Section 5.1 above and as shown in the diagram
below. Ensure that they are tight and routed in such a way that they will not interfere with the
operation.
