the compressor off before inspecting and/or cleaning
the orifices.

[Orifice cleaning]
●
Make sure a minute quantity of condensate
drains from the intercooler discharge port
every 20 seconds when loading the com-
pressor.
●
If no condensate comes out, clean the
strainer element and orifices.
●
If the compressor is operated with no con-
densate being discharged, it could cause
the inside of the compressor to rust and
could result in a serious accident.
