TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS 3. Precautions During Heavy Repair Items Precautions 1. Use of tools. 1) Use special parts and tools for R134a. 2. Recovery of refrigerant. 1) Continue to recover the refrigerant for more than 5 minutes after turning the refrigerator off. 2) Install a piercing type valve on the high pressure line (drier side). Then use the appropriate recovery equipment to recover the refrigerant from the system. When the refrigerant has been recovered, install a piercing type valve on the low pressure side. IT IS IMPORTANT TO OPEN THE SYSTEM IN THIS ORDER TO KEEP THE OIL FROM BEING FORCED OUT. The use of piercing type valves will allow future servicing and eliminates the possibility of a defective pinch off.
