INSTALLATION OF THE COMPRESSOR
A)  After the work has been completed, reinstall 
the compressor on the base or C-fl ange adapter 
(dependent upon compressor model).
B)  On the units, replace the shims under the com-
pressor feet.  Check for a soft foot.  This is ac-
complished by tightening down three of the hold 
down bolts and checking the clearance under the 
fourth compressor foot.  If there is clearance, add 
the appropriate amount of shims.  Tighten down 
the fourth bolt and loosen either adjacent bolt 
and check again for clearance, adding shims ac-
cordingly.  Align the compressor and motor.
On compressors the discharge elbow should 
be tightened on the separator fi rst, before the 
compressor manifold fl ange is tightened. This 
should be done to prevent compressor to motor 
misalignment.
Replace all electrical, gas and oil connections 
removed when servicing the compressor.
LEAK CHECKING UNIT
Note: Unit can be leak checked before evacuation. 
CAUTION
Slowly pressurize the unit from the discharge side of the 
compressor.  Pressurizing the compressor from the suc-
tion side may cause rotation of the compressor without 
oil supply, which could lead to internal damage.
A)  Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the unit.
B)  Break the vacuum on the unit using dry nitrogen 
and check for leaks.  Concentrate on areas where 
work was done.
C)  If no leaks are found, the unit can be returned to 
service.
