<Measuring amount of oil in troubled compressor>
Put the troubled compressor above the scale to measure the amount of oil.
Amount of oil in troubled compressor: A [cc] = (Weight of compressor as it was dismantled (kg) - 42.6kg) x 1042
(Specific volume of oil: 1042 [cc/kg])
* The weight of the compressor without oil inside is 42.6 kg.
<Adjusting amount of oil in new compressor> (3000 cc at shipment)
• Perform the adjustment on the basis of how much oil the troubled compressor contained, A [cc], by following
the steps below.

Amount of oil in troubled compressor A [cc]: 0
(1) Adjust the amount of oil in the new compressor to 2500cc.
(Lay the new compressor down and draw 500 [cc] of oil via the oil-equalization pipe.)
Notes:
• Do not draw more than 500 [cc] of oil as it may cause damage to the compressor.
• If the troubled compressor contained 500cc or less, there may have been a problem with the oil equalization
circuit, etc. Perform checks in accordance with "11-3. Check Procedure to Search Cause of Compressor Oil
