WARNING
•
All personnel should be familiar with and heed all safety warnings in the Warning
Summary, page a, prior to performing any installation, removal, or maintenance
for the Air Conditioning Kit.
Failure to comply may result in injury or death to
personnel and/or damage to equipment.
•
Prior to beginning any work on the Air Conditioning Kit:
1. Disconnect batteries
2. Apply parking brake
3. Chock wheels
4. Remove rings, bracelets, watches, necklaces, and any other jewelry.
Failure to comply may result in serious injury or death to personnel.
CAUTION
•
Refer to Repair Parts List (RPL), Appendix C, prior to beginning any installation
steps for correct parts and hardware identification.
Failure to comply could
result in damage to equipment.
•
Air conditioner current draw is approximately 20 amps.
At minimum, a 100 amp
alternator is required for vehicles with an air conditioner and communications
equipment.
Verify the alternator has a rating of 100 amps or higher.
Upgrade
alternator as necessary.
Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment.
NOTE
•
If alternator will be upgraded to allow for air conditioning installation, the
following tasks can be performed concurrently:
1. Removal and replacement of belts for alternator and A/C
compressor.
2. Disconnecting/reconnecting battery.
3. Routing and attaching power cable from alternator to battery
compartment.
4. Checking power steering, water pump, and crankshaft pulleys for
wear and replacing if needed. Uneven wear will prevent proper belt
tensioning.
•
The Air Conditioning Kits are designed to fit several configurations.
Not
all parts included in the kits will be used on all applications, and some
installations will require modification to ensure fit.
