Product Features

  • R-12 Recharge Hose Kit comes with everything needed to connect and charge a can of R-12 through the low-pressure service port
  • Kit comes with a recharge hose, can tap and locking dispenser clamp

Usage Directions

  1. Turn the dispensing valve handle counterclockwise until the piercing stem is in the upright position. This will prevent accidental piercing of the R-12 can.
  2. Slide the locking clamp onto the top of the R-12 can. Rotate the lever into the closed position.
  3. Screw the dispensing valve into the locking clamp. Make sure there is a tight fit against the top of the R-12 can.
  4. Screw one end of the hose onto the dispensing valve.
  5. Locate the low-side service port of the auto air conditioner. Remove the dust cover. Screw the hose onto the service port. NEVER TRY TO CHARGE THROUGH THE HIGH-SIDE SERVICE PORT.
  6. Start engine. Turn air conditioner to maximum cool.
  7. Turn dispensing valve handle clockwise until the piercing stem has punctured the R-12 can.
  8. Turn the dispensing valve handle counterclockwise until you hear the refrigerant leaving the can. Hold the can upright until the can is empty.
  9. Unscrew the hose from the low-side service port and replace dust cover.
  10. Remove the R-12 can from the locking clamp and discard. Always leave the piercing stem in the upright position to prevent future accidental piercing.
