Check the Air-Conditioner Sight Glass

The air-conditioner sight glass should be checked to see if the system is functioning properly.

1

The receiver/drier, 1, is located on the back of the condenser, in the front grille of the tractor on the 2360 and 2425 tractors (shown in illustration). It is located on the rear left hand hood support on the 2290, 2335 and 2375 tractors. Check the sight glass on the top of the receiver tank every 250 hours. If clear, the system is in good condition; if bubbles flow across the sight glass with the engine running, the system may be low on refrigerant. If the glass is cloudy, it is an indication that the system is contaminated with moisture. When moisture is present, the dryer will have to be replaced by qualified air- conditioning service technicians. Contact your Buhler Versatile dealer.
