- Place the clutch coil assembly (1) on the front head. Position the terminals at the marked location.
- Place the J 33024 over the internal opening of the clutch coil housing.
- Align the J 33024 with the compressor front head.
- Center the J 8433-1 in the counter-sunk center hole of the J 33024 .
- Install the 2 through bolts and washers through the crossbar slots.
- Thread the bolts into the J 34992 in order to achieve full fixture thickness.
- Turn the center forcing screw of the J 8433-1 in order to force the clutch coil onto the front head. Ensure that the clutch coil and the J 33024 remain aligned during installation.
- When the coil is fully seated on the front head, use a 1/8 inch diameter drift punch (2) in order to stake the front head at 3 places 120 degrees apart (3), in order to ensure that the clutch coil (1) remains in position.
- Ensure that the stake size is only one-half the area of the punch tip. Ensure that the stake is only approximately 0.28-0.35 mm (0.010-0.015 in) deep.
- With the compressor mounted to the J 34992 , position the pulley rotor (1) and bearing assembly on the front head.
- Position the J 33017 and the J 33023-A directly over the inner race of the bearing.
- Position the J 8433-1 on the J 33023-A .
- Assemble the 2 through bolts and washers through the puller bar slots.
- Thread the bolts into the J 34992 . Ensure that the thread of the through bolts engages the full thickness of the J 34992 .
- Tighten the center screw in the J 8433-1
in order to force the pulley rotor and bearing assembly onto the compressor front head.
If the J 33017 slips off direct in-line contact with the inner race and bearing, perform the following steps:
- 15.1 Loosen the J 8433-3 .
- 15.2 Realign the installer and the pilot in order to ensure that the J 33017 properly clears the front head.
- Use the J 6083
in order to install the following components:
- The pulley rotor (1)
- The retainer ring (2)
- Install the clutch plate and hub assembly. Refer to COMPRESSOR CLUTCH PLATE/HUB ASSEMBLY INSTALL (V7 - DIRECT MOUNT) or COMPRESSOR CLUTCH PLATE/HUB ASSEMBLY INSTALL (HT6/HD6/HU6) .
