If you are going to be installing your air conditioning hoses and charging the
system at this time, remove the plate on top of the compressor body and install
compressor manifold onto compressor with two 8mm-1.25 x 25mm socket head
cap screws and tighten firmly.
Install hoses, connect clutch wire and charge system.
If you are NOT installing hoses and charging the system at this time, place
compressor manifold and hardware in a safe place and leave cover plate on
compressor at this time. Do not connect clutch wire or apply power to clutch
wire without the hoses connected and system charged – Serious damage will
occur to compressor.
