Step 2 — Install Piping
Shut off all power to the unit, then lock out and safety-
tag all disconnects before proceeding with installation.
Remove refrigerant charge from circuits using an ap-

ports and replaced with Swagelok fittings. Note that plugs
were factory-installed with Loctite refrigerant-compatible
