8) Attach the rubber grommets of the previous compressor.
9) Clean the suction and discharge pipes with an abrasive cloth/paper.
10) Place the compressor in position, and secure it using the bolts and washers.
11) Remove plugs from the compressor suction and discharge pipes.
12) Braze or solder the access, suction and discharge lines (Do not change this order),
with nitrogen gas lowing at a pressure of 0.2 - 0.3 bar.
13) Install the new drier (See “4. DRIER”).
14) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (10 bar) and soap bubbles.
15) Evacuate the system and charge it with refrigerant (See “2. [c] EVACUATION AND
RECHARGE”).
16) Connect the solderless terminals and replace the terminal cover in its correct
position.
17) Replace the front panel and rear mesh in their correct positions.
18) Plug in the ice dispenser or connect the power source.
Note: Hoshizaki recommends that compressor starting electrics are always replaced at
the same time as the compressor.

1) Unplug the ice dispenser or disconnect the power source.
2) Remove the rear mesh.
3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in a proper container, if required by an applicable
law (See “2. [b] REFRIGERANT RECOVERY”).
4) Remove the drier holder, if any, and pull the drier toward you for easy service.
5) Remove the drier using brazing equipment.
6) Braze or solder the new drier, with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the
refrigerant flow. Use nitrogen gas at a pressure of 0.2 - 0.3 bar when brazing
tubing. Braze in an access valve using a tee if necessary.
7) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (10 bar) and soap bubbles.
