〈 Preventing foreign objects from entering 〉
Plug the pipe through-holes with putty or insulating material
(procured locally) to stop up all gaps, as shown in Fig. 10.
Insects or small animals entering the outdoor unit may cause a short
in the control box.
〈 Precautions when the handling piping stop valve 〉
Do not open the stop valves until the 7. EVACUATING is finished.
• The names of the parts necessary for handling the pipe stop valves for the indoor and outdoor units are
described in Fig. 11. The valves are closed before shipment.
• Since the side boards may be deformed if only a torque wrench is used when loosening or tightening flare
nuts, always lock the shut-off valve with a wrench and then use a torque wrench.
When tightening the flare of the stop valve, do not exceed the rated torque. The rated torque is shown
on page 16.
Applying force by exceeding the rated tightening torque may cause the sheet surface inside the stop valve to
twist, the refrigerant to leak inside the valve, and the flare nut to break.
