Replace when worn or damaged parts. CAUTION Valves must be replaced in original position.
- Page 14 GENERAL MAINTENANCE (Cont'd.) CENTRIFUGAL UNLOADER AND UNLOADER PRESSURE RELEASE VALVE: The centrifugal unloader is operated by two governor weights. It is totally enclosed and lubricated from the crankcase of the compressor. When compressor starts, the governor weights automatically open compressing the main spring, allowing the unloader pressure release valve to close. When the compressor stops, the main spring returns the governor weights to normal position opening the unloader pressure release valve and unloading the compressor.
