Basic Setup - MasterCool R134a Manual De Instrucciones

WARNING! If the manifold is connected to a pressure or
vacuum source and displays actual readings, do not attempt
to zero out the reading by pressing the enter button. This can
offset the reading.
BASIC SET-UP
The following settings are pre-programmed into the unit.
• Pressure: PSI / IN-Hg
• Temperature: °F
To change these settings please follow the procedure below:
• Press the POWER button to turn the unit ON. Allow 10-15 seconds for warm-up
and readings to stabilize. (You will see all characters and units countdown

PRE-SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Close both valves on the manifold gauge set by turning the High and Low
knobs clockwise.
2. Attach the High and Low couplers to the Red and Blue hoses.
If using manual couplers, open the plunger by turning the knob counter-clock
wise prior to connection to the system. (fig. A)
3. Connect the Red hose to the High port and the Blue hose to the Low port on
the manifold gauge.
HOOK-UP FOR SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
To properly diagnose the problem in the A/C system, first check the
system's overall performance. This includes testing the system's pressure and
refrigerant flow. The system pressure can be checked with the manifold gauge
set.
NOTE: Be sure that the hand valves on the manifold gauge set are in the
closed position. Always wear gloves and safety goggles when working with
refrigerant.
1. Remove the protective caps from the system ports. Check for leaks at the
ports.
2. Connect the Low side service hose (Blue) to the suction side of the
compressor. Connect the High side service hose (Red) to the discharge side of
the compressor. Make sure the couplers are securely snapped.
3. If using manual couplers, move the plunger down within the coupler by turning
the knob clockwise in order to open the port valves and start refrigerant flow.
