-- Hold the A/C compressor input shaft -B- secure with a commercially available hex socket and turn the clutch plate -C- in the direction of the -arrow-.

NOTE:

The torque to drive the A/C compressor is transferred to the clutch plate -C- via the threaded connection. If, while the A/C compressor is working, the clutch plate -C- was attached to the A/C compressor shaft so tight, that it cannot be loosened (the 7 mm Allen wrench -B- cannot transmit the necessary torque) then the A/C compressor must be replaced.
