This process takes about 45 minutes. You can interrupt it at any time by pressing

HOLD/CONT once. Press HOLD/CONT again to resume

operation, or press SHIFT/RESET to end the process. The transfer of new

refrigerant is limited by weight to leave space (about 6 pounds of refrigerant) in the

unit tank for recovery purposes.

8. When using R-12, close the supply valve on the source tank (when

using a disposable tank, turn it right side up first). Carefully disconnect the 96 inch

(244-cm) blue low-side hose from the 6-inch (15.2-cm) yellow adapter, and

then remove the yellow adapter from the source tank.

When using R-134a, close the supply valve on the source tank, (when using

a disposable tank, turn it right side up first). Carefully disconnect the 96 inch

(244-cm) blue low-side hose from the low-side connector port adapter and

then remove the adapter from the source tank.

9. Press RECOVER. The hose will be pulled into a partial vacuum and the unit

will turn off automatically. If the hose is partially clear, the unit will display

"CH-P". Press HOLD/CONT to finish clearing the hose. Close the low-side

manifold valve.

10. Connect the 96-inch (244-cm) red high-side hose to the unit's high-side port.

You can also attach an oil injector to the unit's low-side port. Oil injectors will

not connect to the wrong ports. The R-12 oil injector has a ¼ inch flare

connector; the R-134a oil injector has a ½ Acme connector.

Any non-condensable gases in the tank can be removed during the recycling

sequence. Your unit is now ready for use.
