Step 7ÐRefrigerant Tubing
Connect vapor tube to fitting on outdoor unit vapor service valve and connect liquid tube to filter drier. (See Fig. 5.)
A brazing shield MUST be used when tubing sets are being brazed to the service valves to prevent damage to the painted unit surface.
Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system repair or final unit disposal to avoid personal injury or death. Use all service ports and open all flow control devices, including solenoid valves.
The cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken ground according to NEC, ANSI/NFPA
To avoid personal injury or death, do not supply power to unit with compressor terminal box cover removed.
CONNECT GROUND AND POWER WIRES Ð Connect ground wire to ground connection in control box for safety. Connect power wiring to contactor as shown in Fig. 6.
To avoid valve damage while brazing, service valves must be wrapped with a
SWEAT CONNECTION Ð Use refrigerant grade tubing. Service valves are closed from factory and ready for brazing. After wrapping service valve and filter drier with wet cloth, tubing set can be brazed to service valve and filter drier using either silver bearing or
Step 8ÐEvacuate
Refrigerant tubes and indoor coil should be evacuated using the recommended deep vacuum method of 500 microns. The alternate triple evacuation method may be used if the procedure outlined in the Service Manual is followed. Always break a vacuum with dry nitrogen.

Never use the system compressor as a vacuum pump.
Step 9ÐMake Electrical Connections
Be sure field wiring complies with local and national fire, safety, and electrical codes, and voltage to system is within limits shown on unit rating plate. Contact local power company for correction of improper voltage. See unit rating plate for recommended circuit protection device. (See Fig. 4.)
NOTE: Operation of unit on improper line voltage constitutes abuse and could affect unit reliability. See unit rating plate.
NOTE: Use only copper wire between disconnect switch and unit.
NOTE: Install branch circuit disconnect per NEC of adequate size to handle unit starting current, but not larger than maximum fuse size shown on unit rating plate. Locate disconnect within sight from and readily accessible from unit, per Section
ROUTE GROUND AND POWER WIRES Ð Remove access panel and control box cover to gain access to unit wiring. Extend wires from disconnect through power wiring hole provided and into unit control box. (See Fig. 4.) Size wires per NEC but not smaller than minimum wire size shown in presale literature.

CONNECT CONTROL WIRING Ð Route
Use No. 18 AWG
Use furnace transformer, fan coil transformer, or accessory trans- former for control power, 24v/40va minimum.
NOTE: Use of available
Step 10ÐInstall Electrical Accessories
Refer to individual instructions packaged with kits or accessories when installing.
Step 11ÐStart-Up
1.After system is evacuated, fully back seat (open) liquid and vapor service valves. Unit is shipped with valve stem(s) front seated and caps installed.
2.Replace stem caps after system is opened to refrigerant flow (back seated). Replace caps finger tight and tighten additional 1/12 turn with wrench.
3.Close electrical disconnects to energize system.
4.Be sure thermostat set point is below indoor ambient tempera- ture. Set room thermostat at COOL and fan at ON or AUTO, as desired. Operate unit for 15 minutes. Check system refrigerant charge.
