Fig. 1 Installing clutch plate & hub assembly
1.
Install shaft key into hub key groove, allowing key to project about 1/8 inch out of keyway. Shaft key is curved to provide interference fit.
2.
Ensure frictional surface of clutch plate and rotor are clean.
3.
Align shaft key with shaft keyway and place clutch plate and hub assembly on compressor shaft. Do not drive or pound on clutch hub of shaft,
as this may cause internal damage to compressor.

Remove forcing tip from J-33013 remover/installer center screw and reverse body direction on center screw, Fig. 1.
5.
Install clutch plate and hub installer J-33013 or equivalent with bearing, Fig. 1. Body of installing tool should be backed off sufficiently to allow
center screw to be threaded fully onto end of compressor shaft.
6.
Hold center screw with wrench and tighten hex portion of installer J-33013 body to press hub onto shaft. Tighten body several turns, then remove
installer to check that shaft key is still in place in keyway. Reinstall installer and seat clutch plate and hub assembly in final position. Air gap
between frictional surfaces of clutch plate and clutch rotor should be .015-.025 inch.
