PRESSURE SWITCH/SAFETY SWITCH (SINGLE SWITCH)
Remove the dust cover on the pressure
switch and attach wiring harness to
electrical connections. If properly installed,
it will not allow the compressor to engage if
too little or too much refrigerant.
Pressure switch is a compressor safety
switch designed to save the compressor
from failure due to too low or too high of
pressure in the system.

O-RINGS
• Use 2 wrenches to tighten fittings.
• Do not over tighten.
• Use a few drops of mineral oil with every o-ring.
• Crushing or ripping an o-ring will create a small leak very
difficult to locate.
When installing o-rings on the hose connections, be certain
the o-ring is properly sealed. Also check for sharp edges on
the seat. If installed wrong, or the seat has a sharp burr, the
o-ring can be cut.
Use the o-ring pack supplied. Not all sizes and quantities
will be used.
When removing caps, pressure will release. Do NOT leave drier open to air longer than
a couple minutes.
• Insert the drier into the drier mounting bracket
• Attach the drier liquid tube to the “IN” port on drier and to the connection on the
condenser
• Attach drier to condenser
