a. Check bolts, shim packs, center inserts, keys, and all bolt torques.
b. Check and torque all terminals in the processor and starter panel per the specification posted in the enclosure.
c. Check calibration of Slide Valve, Slide Stop, pressures and temperatures. Calibration should be conducted with NIST certified devices.
d. Verify tightness of bolts on suction and discharge flanges. See table below for torque requirements.
e. Vibration measurement must be carried out continuously to obtain optimum preventative control on bearings. If not continuously controlled,
then every 6 months, more frequently if levels increase.
f. Units with varible speed drives - check for excess vibration and skip frequencies any time unit operating conditions change.

NOTE: The Frick oil charge shipped with the unit is the
best suited lubricant for the conditions specified at the
time of purchase. If there is any doubt due to the refriger-
ant, operating pressures, or temperatures, refer to Frick
Oil publication 160-802 SPC for guidance.
1. Only use Frick
®
oil filter elements or warranty claim
may be denied.
2. Participate in a regular, periodic oil analysis program to
maintain oil and system integrity. Oil Analysis Kit part num-
ber: 333Q0001853.
3. Oil samples for analysis should be taken after the oil
filter. A ¼" purge valve is provided between the filter and
compressor.
