Flow regulated nitrogen (at 1 to 2 psig) through the low-side refrigeration gauge set into the liquid line service port valve, and out of the suction
line service port valve.
CUT AND DEBUR
CAP AND CORE REMOVAL
Cut ends of the refrigerant lines square (free from nicks or dents)
and debur the ends. The pipe must remain round. Do not crimp end
of the line.

CAUTION
Brazing alloys and flux contain materials which are
hazardous to your health.
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing
operations. Perform operations only in well-ventilated
areas.
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to
protect against burns.
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing
alloys and flux.
WARNING
Danger of fire. Bleeding the refrigerant
charge from only the high side may result
in pressurization of the low side shell and
suction tubing. Application of a brazing
torch to a pressurized system may result
in ignition of the refrigerant and oil
mixture. Check the high and low
pressures before applying heat.
