  4. Align the J 33024  with the compressor front head.
  5. Center the J 8433-1  in the counter-sunk center hole of the J 33024. 
  6. Install the two bolts and washers through the crossbar slots.
  7. Thread the bolts into the J 34992  in order to achieve full fixture thickness.
  8. 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.

    Important:  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.

  10. 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.

  14. Assemble the two bolts and washers through the puller bar slots.
  15. Thread the bolts into the J 34992.  Ensure that the thread of the through bolts engages the full thickness of the J 34992. 
  16. Tighten the center screw in the J 8433-1  in order to force the pulley rotor and bearing assembly onto the compressor front head.
  17. If the J 33017  slips off direct in-line contact with the inner race and bearing, perform the following steps:
    1. 17.1. Loosen the J 8433-3. 
    2. 17.2. Realign the installer and the pilot in order to ensure that the J 33017  properly clears the front head.
