SPECIAL PROCEDURE IN THE CASE OF MOTOR
COMPRESSOR BURNOUT
Basically, troubleshooting and servicing rotary compres-
sors is the same as on the reciprocating compressor with
only one main exception:
NEVER, under any circumstances, liquid charge a rotary-
compressor through the LOW side. Doing so would cause
permanent damage to the new compressor.
