REED VALVE
Inspection
1) Visually inspect for warping of the reed valve. If
warped, measure the distortion with feeler
gauges.
If the amount of warping is greater than specifi-
cation, replace the reed valve.
2) Using a vernier caliper, measure the valve stop-
per height.
If the valve stopper height is outside the speci-
fication, adjust it by bending.
3) Visually inspect for cracks on the reed valve. If
cracks are found, replace the reed valve.
Valve bending limit
0.200 mm (0.0079 in)
Valve stopper height:
5.00 – 5.50 mm (0.20 – 0.22 in)
