THIS ALERT SYMBOL SIGNALS IMPORTANT MESSAGES INVOLVING YOUR SAFETY.

Read and heed carefully the safety instructions listed and follow the precautions recommended to avoid
potential risks and to safeguard your health and your safety.

You will find this symbol in the text of this Manual referred to the following key words:

WARNING - Cautions directed to avoid improper repair interventions involving potential consequences
for the operator’s safety.

DANGER - These warnings qualify specifically potential dangers for the safety of the operator or other
persons directly or indirectly involved.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
All maintenance and repair interventions explained in this Manual must be performed exclusively by the
Service Organization of the Manufacturer, observing strictly the instructions explained using, whenever
necessary, the recommended specific tools.
Whoever performs the operations reported without following exactly the precautions is responsible on his own,
for the damages that may result.

Neither the Factory nor any Organizations in its Distribution Network, including but not limited to national, regional
or local distributors, are responsible for any liability arising from any damage resulting from defects caused by
parts and/or components not approved by the Factory for use in maintaining and/or repairing products
manufactured or merchandized by the Factory.
In any case, no warranty of any kind is made or shall be imposed with respect to products manufactured or
merchandized by the Factory, when failures are caused by the use of parts and/or components not approved by
the Factory.
AVOID ACCIDENTS

Most accidents and injuries occurring in industry, on the


farm, at home or on the road, are caused by the failure
of some individual to follow simple and fundamental
safety rules or precautions. For this reason, MOST
ACCIDENTS CAN BE PREVENTED by recognizing
the real cause and taking the necessary precautions,
before the accident occurs.
Regardless of the care used in design and construction
of any type of equipment, there may be conditions that
cannot be completely safeguarded against without
interfering with reasonable accessibility and efficient
operation.
A careful operator is the best insurance against
accidents. The complete observance of one simple rule
would prevent many thousands serious injuries each
year.
This rule is: Never attempt to clean, lubricate or adjust
a machine while it is in motion.

WARNING

On machines having hydraulically, mechanically


and/or cable controlled equipment (such as
showels, loaders, dozers, scrapers etc.) be certain
the equipment is lowered to the ground before
servicing, adjusting and/or repairing.
If it is necessary to have the equipment partially or
fully raised to gain access to certain items, be sure
the equipment is suitably supported by means
other than the hydraulic lift cylinders, cable and/or
mechanical device used for controlling the
equipment.

UNITS OF MEASURE CLASSIFICATION OF STANDARD COMPO-


NENTS TO DETERMINE THE TIGHTENING
Units of measure used in this manual are those TORQUES
adopted by the International System which replace
the units previously used by the M.K.S. system.

Force: decanewton (daN) replaces kilogram Note - In case, in the different sections, the tightening
(kg) torque is not listed, refer to the table “TIGHTE-
NING TORQUES”, only after identifying exactly the
Pressure: bar, replaces kg/cm2 component.

Torque: decanewton x meter (daNm) replaces


kgm The latter is identified by a coded eight digit number,
allowing a complete description of the item.
The following tables is to be used to convert units of
measure:
Example:
multiply by to obtain
I / a b c d e / f g
Force kg 0.9807 daN
I - Standard index digit
Pressure kg/cm2 0.9807 bar
It is always represented by the digit 1. This number
Torque kgm 0.9807 daNm indicates that the item can be fabricated in a number
of versions differing for material and coating.

Note - For current service use, the following a - b - c - d - e - Standard base digits
equivalences can be considered to be valid:
kg = daN; kg/cm2 = bar; kgm = daNm. It is a number always composed of five digits
identifying dimensional specifications of the item.

f - Material index digit

This digit indicates the material used for a defined


item. Its meaning is indicated in the table that follows.

g - Coating index digit

It indicates the coating applied to a defined item.

Power train

The engine power is transmitted through the engine


flywheel, the disc joint or the coupling gear, the front
cover, the pump wheel, the turbine and the
transmission.

Oil flow (see fig. 2.5)

The oil of the torque converter coming from the


transmission control valve enters the torque converter
wheel through the duct in the stator support.
As soon as the engine starts, the pump wheel rotates,
throwing oil from the vanes of the blades of the wheel
(under the effect of centrifugal force), towards the
vanes of the turbine wheel blades. The oil flow hits
the turbine with an angle such that, in turn, the turbine
shafts rotates. The reaction torque produced by the
oil flow which hits the turbine blades, represents the
output torque provided by the turbine shaft.
The stator diverts the oil flow coming from the turbine
vanes, directing it into the pump vanes, thus creating
an increase of the torque.
Part of the oil contained by the torque converter wheel
is directed into the heat exchanger through the
appropriate duct in the stator suppor t. In
correspondence with the oil inlet into the torque
converter, a safety valve is mounted, which discharges
excess oil into the torque converter housing.

1. When the clutches selected have been filled with


oil, the pressure differential before and after orifice
[W] is eliminated, thus the plunger of the flow val-
ve moves leftward, as shown in the figure, pushed
by the spring, thus closing the oil discharge.
The oil in circuit (23) flows through the axial hole
of spool A, enters circuit (24), then goes through
orifice [X] and enters chamber (20) of the accu-
mulator.

2. At the same time, the oil flows through the gaps


(5, 6) of the modulating valve and the holes in the
plunger of the valve itself, moving into chamber
(7) behind the plunger. Consequently, the plunger
of the modulating valve moves gradually leftward
for the combined effect of the oil pressure in
chamber (25) and the spring, increasing gradually
the engagement pressure of the clutch.

3. When the clutch engagement pressure reaches


the pre-established value, the load plunger in

A flows into circuit (23). Thus it goes to power,
through the holes drilled in the spool, circuit (24)
from which, a portion of the oil flow is directed
through calibrated orifice X to chamber (20) of the
accumulator.
At the same time, the other portion passes from
circuit (24) to circuit (27) of gearshifting spool b.
From circuit (27) the oil passes through circuit (28)
and calibrated orifice Y of circuit (29) flowing into

Thus, when the control lever is shifted into 2nd
speed, the oil flows through calibrated orifices X,

Engine starting safety system in Neutral
The engine starting safety system in neutral prevents
the starting of the engine in the event the pilot valve
is not in neutral. This allows avoiding that the loader
is suddenly moving, when the starter key is moved to

Make sure that the pilot valve is in neutral, prior to
starting the engine.
The engine starting safety system in neutral is incor-
porated in the circuit of the engine starting system.
Operation
1. When the key is moved into START with the pilot
valve lever in neutral, the neutral relay is closed,
allowing electric power to go through the safety
relay, thus powering the starter motor of the en-
gine.
2. When the starter key is moved to START with the
pilot valve not in neutral, the neutral relay stays
open, preventing the power from crossing the
safety relay. The engine cannot be started.

flanged to the torque converter cover; - a three-way diverter valve (14) which controls
engagement and disengagement of the parking
- a filter (10) on pump outlet; brake (16);

- a brake pedal valve (5) controlling simultaneously - a hydraulic ram (16) composed of springs and a
front and rear brakes (1 and 2, respectively), which hydraulic cylinder to counter-act them. Spring force
are located inside the drive axles; is used to lock the parking brake discs when
pressure oil in the cylinder is dumped by means of
- two accumulators (8 and 9) which during normal the diverter/control valve. When fed with pressure
operation stabilise system pressure and, in case of oil (by means of the diverter/control valve), the
emergency, with the engine stopped, allow to cylinder overcomes spring action and consequently
positively apply the brakes for several times; the brake is released;

- the oil used in the brakes system is the same of the - an accumulator (not illustrated) mounted on the
equipment hydraulic system and it is taken from pressure relief valve, that during normal operation
hydraulic reservoir (S) through a filter. stabilises the pressure inside the circuit, and, with
engine inoperative, allows the disengagement of the

EMERGENCY STEERING
The oil taken from the reservoir by the steering pump is delivered to the steering valve.
The steering valve regulates the pressure and the flow of the oil. Also, it is equipped with a
priority valve sending the excess oil from the steering circuit to the equipment circuit, when the
steering does not require all the oil. When the steering wheel is actuated, the steering valve is
activated, intercepting the oil coming from the pump, sending it to the steering cylinders.
The oil discharged returns through the steering wheel to the oil reservoir.

6.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The configuration of the hydraulic system is as follows: Once the speed of 7 km/h (3.1 m/h) is exceeded, a
An hydraulic oil reservoir with a capacity of 124 l (32.7 solenoid valve automatically activates the system,
U.S. Gal), capacity of the system about 220 l (58 U.S. connecting the cylinder chambers with the
Gal) mounted centrally on the right side of the loader, accumulator and allowing the actuation of the damping
complete with filter protected by a by-pass valve set effect.
at 1 bar, located on the return oil circuit from the A sequence valve set at 120 bar, has the function of
actuators. protecting the accumulator from pressure peaks.
An hydraulic pump with a by-pass valve mounted on
the transmission housing and driven by a gear secured
to the converter pump wheel.
A two-section, monobloc type control valve receives
the oil from the pump, setting the system pressure
through a main pressure relief valve set at 206 bar.
The control valve, as already stated is a two section
series type feeding two circuits: bucket roll back/dump
and boom raising and lowering.
Each one of these two circuits is equipped with safety
and anti-cavitation valves, preventing dangerous
pressure peaks that could occur in the pipes and
cylinders. Each section is equipped with a spool,
hydraulically piloted by a power assisted pilot valve;
the control valve control circuit operates at a pressure
of about 30 bar and it is connected with the brakes
circuit. The pilot valve can be hydraulically cut-off by
a three-way diverter valve (stop valve), so that the
accidental actuation of the levers, causing possible
undesired reactions by the equipment, is prevented.
The equipment control valve is connected with the
steering circuit. The excess oil arriving from the
steering pump is sent, with steering in neutral, to the
equipment circuit through a priority valve.
The circuit includes also, as an optional, a stress
reducing device when the machine is travelling on
rough terrain with a full bucket, the device is called
L.T.S. (Load Travel Stabiliser).
It is known, in fact, that during the travel of the
machine on rough terrain, the load of materials causes
a troublesome pitching of the unit, reflecting on the
stability of the machine itself, of the load and on the
operator’s comfort.
In this case, a big hydraulic accumulator, pre-loaded
with nitrogen and capable of absorbing the dynamic
loads, is connected through a block of valves with
the boom cylinders.

When disassembling, mark all components so that
they can be re-installed in the correct position. a
After cleaning each individual item, inspect all the parts
of the pump.

1) Gear plate
One of the methods to obtain a better volumetric
efficiency of a gear pump is the design allowing
the end of the teeth to stay in contact with the
inner wall of the chamber containing the gear itself.
Consequently, once the pump starts running, marks
left by the gear teeth are shown around the suction
port (fig. 6-6).
The contact mark is normal as long as it is less
than 1/2 the inner circumference of the gear cavity.
Dimension a of the mark depth (fig. 6-7) is normal Contact
if it as about 0.05 mm (0.00196 in). When dimension mark
a exceeds 0.15 mm (0.00589 in) also the shaft
and bearings can wear out. Thus, these items as
well, must be thoroughly checked. Fig. 6-7 Dimension of mark depth
If a is ≥ 0.15 mm (0.00589 in), replace the pump
with a new one.

2) Driving and driven gear


In case the shaft or the gear surface shows
roughness felt by running a finger nail, or in case
the surface of the teeth shows excessive wear
zones, it is necessary to replace the item.

6.3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The equipment control valve is a 2 spools monobloc


type.
The internal oil passages are of the series type so
that the bucket function has the priority on the boom
function. The pressure oil therefore reaches the boom
outlet port only when the bucket spool is in neutral
position.
The control valve is hydraulically actuated by means
of a pilot valve located in the cab; it is equipped with a
main pressure relief valve and three safety and
anticavitation valves.
When the pressure in the system exceeds the value
of 206 bar, the main pressure relief valve discharges
oil to protect cylinders and pipes.
The safety and anti-cavitation valves protect the
relevant circuits from sudden pressure peaks due to
mechanical loads on the equipment capable of causing
a pressure increase beyond the pre-set value, and they
are mounted on the single spools of the control valve.

DECRIPTION OF OPERATION

Piloting device with stroke-end detent.


The pilot valve operates as a direct control pressure
reduction valve.
It includes, essentially, control lever (1), four pres-
sure reduction valves, body (6) and stops. Each pres-
sure reduction valve is composed of control spool (2)
actuating spring (3) reaction spring (4) plunger (5). In
rest condition, control lever (1) is held in neutral posi-
tion by reaction springs (4). Ports (1, 2, 3, 4) are con-
nected to tank port T through duct (8). When control
lever (1) is pulled, pusher group (5) is moved against
reaction spring (4) and actuating spring (3). Actuating
spring (3), at first, moves control spool (2) downward
and closes the connection between the relevant port
and tank port T. At the same time, the relevant port is
connected to port P through duct (8). The control
phase begins as soon as spool (2) balancing between
the force of actuating spring (3) and the force result-
ing from the hydraulic pressure in the relevant ports

spool (2) and actuating spring (3) the pressure in the lock
relevant ports is proportional to the stroke of pusher
group (5) thus to the position of control lever (1).
This controls allows the proportional hydraulic actua-
tion of the equipment control valve.
Rubber boot (9) protects the mechanical components
from contamination, thus these piloting units are suit-
able also under the most unfavourable operating con-
ditions.

Stroke-end detent
Only the ports requiring a stroke-end detent of the
control lever are equipped with this device.

Solenoid block
An additional spring (7) under plate (12)warns by in-
creasing the force required to press this spring, that
the stroke of pusher group (5) and control lever (1) is
nearing its limit. Once this limit is reached, ring (10) is
touching solenoid armature (11). If the solenoid is
energised, control lever (1) is held in this position by
the magnetic force. The block is released automati-
cally, once the solenoid is de-energised.

Switches SW1 and SW2 are represented as they must be in the in the automatic transmission version.

Operation

All the functions are controlled by control unit K8. All the components are connected to control unit and the inlet
main signal is supplied by switch S29. In the OFF position the engaged speeds will be and will correspond to
those of the selector.
in the ON position all the shifts are managed by the control unit according to its operating logic. The only engagement
that is not directly controlled by the control unit concerns the parking brake. In fact it is the only one that does not
interfere with the signals of solenoids open circuit and as a conseguence of the indications of the lamps on the
panel.
The bridge JP1 is installed on ground of rev sensor 181 and 208. In the case of the automatic transmission it must
be connected as illustrated in the diagram, in a way to have also this function controlled by the control unit.

Cutt-off operation

The cut-off operates both in forward or reverse and is obtained by the opening of relay R9 contacts. In the normal
position the contacts are as shown in the diagram, closing the circuit of solenoids F and R.
The cut-off can be obtained in two ways: with the parking brake engaged or with the operation of service brakes.
With the parking brake engaged the coil of relay R9 is grounded by pressure switch 88 fitted to the brake itself.
When using the parking brakes it is instead grounded when the contacts of switch S37 and those of pressure
switch 75, fitted on brake pedal valve, are closed.

Operation

The components connected to other groups such as lights, turn lights are going to be explained with those
groups.

In table 3a are represented all the warning indicators, those of the transmission speeds, the hourmeter, the timers
Z1 for main steering circuit low pressure and Z2 for initial check and buzzer functions. When the key switch is
turned to the first position “ACC” all the indicator lamps light on, and both Z1 than Z2 are supplied, in this condition
the timers are connected to fuse F9B.

The battery charging indicator is connected to terminal +I of alternator that is considered as negative when the
alternator is not rotating.
In the same manner are also connected the terminals 4 of the check timer Z2 and the hourmeter.
This Z2 connection prevents the buzzer intervention during the initial check.
Remember that the initial check is carried out for a 5 seconds interval as soon as the key is turned in 1st position
“ACC”. In effect as the engine starts driving the alternator the terminal +I of the alternator becomes positive and
the buzzer ground is managed by Z2 and goes on each time there is a defect.
The hourmeter, as shown in the diagram with the alternator at rest, is connected to a totally negative circuit
through terminal +I while during alternator rotation the circuit becomes positive and normally operating.

In diagram 3b are represented the components concerning the instruments and indicator lamps for turning lights
and high beam lights. The complete lights circuit is represented in diagrams 7a and 7b. For what concerns the
speedometer are represented the rev sensor for automatic transmission, the dip-switches and the bridge JP1 that
can be positioned differently according to machine model.
Connection CN2-24 on dashboard is positively connected to relays holder slide connection G1, the fuse F11A is
under current when the key is turned in 1st position ACC.

Thermostarter operation (170-190)

The thermostarter turn-on is not automatic, but is obtained by turning the starter key to the first position
and keeping it in this position for all the necessary time.

THERMOSTARTER STARTING AND


In any case no more than 30 seconds.
After this rotate the key in the normal starting position.
With the key in position “H”, described above, the relay 204 is energized closing the contacts and connect-
ing directly the battery with resistor 203.

SAFETY DEVICES
Operation of starting and safety rules

There are two 80 Amp LINK fuses in the connection between batteries and alternator and another one 50

TABLE 4
Amp in the batteries starter motor connection.
The main switch installed on the negative pole of the batteries cuts-off all functions, except switch and cab
ceiling light.
When the key of the starter switch is moved into "M", the coil of electric cut-off 229 is powered. The electric
cut-off of models W170-190 consists of two coils, one holder and one puller. When the key is in "M", the
first coil is energised, which is unable to move the magnet. With the key in "M" position, the first coil
(holder) is energised by the electric cut-off and, at the same time, the second coil of the electric cut-off
(puller) is energised for a fraction of a second, which, moving the injection pump link, positions the gover-
nor rod in operation condition.
The starter motor is engaged when relay R4 is energised and this occurs only when relay R5 is energised,
as well, condition obtained when the key is moved into position START (third click) and selector S41 is in
neutral. Please note that the negative of coil R4 is connected to terminal +I of the alternator, which is
negative only when the alternator is not turning. Once the engine is started, this terminal becomes positive
and relay R4 cannot be energised. Consequently, a safety is implemented to avoid further starting opera-
tions while the engine is turning.
This wiring diagram shows that the alternator has an R terminal connected to the relay board to final
connector L4. An electronic rpm counter can be connected to this point.

Steering operation
When in the main circuit there is a consistent lowering of pressure, the switch 92 closes and if the pressure
lowering lasts more than 5 seconds, controlled by timer Z1 the dashboard indicator lights up and also the buzzer
goes on. The buzzer is controlled by timer Z2 that is used also by all the other indicators.
When the pressure in the steering emergency circuit is too low the switch 91 closes and the same lamp in the
dashboard immediately lights up.

Bucket and boom positioner


The circuit is activated with the contacts closing of services relay that is energized when the key is rotated in
ACC (1st position). The magnets EV10 and EV11 are controlled by proximity switch 132
and 136. The magnet EV10 is controlled by switch 138 that has 3 position:
a) OFF position - the magnet is never energized
b) position 1st click - the magnet is always energized
c) position 2nd click - the activation of magnet is controlled by sensor 132
The magnet EV9 for boom float position is always energized. This means that everytime the boom control lever
is shifted in float position the lever is held in position and its return must be actuated manually.

Operation

Air conditioning is optional equipment. Standard equipment is the heater.


Rotating the key in ACC, 1st position the current flows in all the system. With fan off it is possible to open or close
the heating and re-circulation.
Whit fan off it is impossible to turn on the air conditioning.
The triple pressure switch 145 feels the gas pressure in the circuit and has two functions:
1) to engage the compressor clutch
2) system safety: in case of excessive or low pressure in the circuit to stop the compressor.
The thermostat S26 is a safety device of the system. Should the temperature in the evaporator decrease under
the thermostat setting of about 2°C, it will stop the air conditioning.
The cab temperature regulation is obtained by acting exclusively on the cab fan speed and by the opening of the
cold/warm tap.
The potentiometer S22 mounted on small motor opening the hot water tap is used to transmit to the control unit
the rotation value manually obtained through potentiometer S23 this to assure correspondence of values.
The opening position is a function of the S23 setting.
The re-circulation motor, actuated by switch S21, has only two possible positions: open and closed.
Both the re-circulation and the cold/warm tap are controlled by the electronic control unit K3.

Operation
All the system is power supplied when the key switch is turned in ACC, 1st position, through the contacts of
services relay.
The switches S32, S33, S34 incorporate a lamp that lights up when they are closed.
The fuse F3B feeds the high beam and dim lights circuits, but each one of them has its own fuse F8B and F6B.
The passage from high to low beam lights and viceversa is obtained through relay R3 controlled by lever switch
S42 located to the right of steering column.
With the first click of switch S32, the parking lights are actuated, while with the second click also the high and low
beam lights come on according to position S42.
The switch S42 has three positions.
With contact on 56B the low beam lights are activated.
With contacts on 30 (unstable position, the lever is spring loaded) the high beam lights are switched on.
With contact on 56 the high beam lights stay on.

Operation

CAB COMPONENTS
The clock together with the ceiling light are operating independently from the main switch. In fact they
are directly connected to the batteries ground. The clock light goes on when the lights are switched on.
The wipers can be operated when the key is rotated to first position ACC with contacts of services relay
closed.

TABLE 8
The Rear wiper S31 has three positions: in 0 through contacts 7 and 5 the current flows to the motor so
to have the wiper return in rest position. In position 1 the intermittence unit will operate through contacts
3/5 and 4/6 of switch S31.
In position 2 the wiper will remain connected in one frequency speed. The interested contacts are 3/5/1
and 4/2/6.
Each time that the switch is moved in 1 or 2 the inner lamp will light.
The Front wiper has two speeds. As the rear one it is equipped for intermittent operation.
The switch position is represented in this way:
Zero = off
J = intermittence
I = first speed
II = second speed
Wash = washing
The rotary beacons are controlled by switch S21 also housing an inner lamp that lights when closed.
They are connected to machine by means of two sockets mounted outside the cab.

Disassembly Preparing the replacement glass

1. Push a pointed object through the adhesive from 1. Place the glass momentarily in position and mark
inside the cab and insert the wire. with adhesive tape to position it correctly during
final bonding.
2. Using the wire, cut the adhesive all around the
glass. Lift out the glass using two suction cups.

3. Using a knife, cut off the adhesive left on the body


to leave a smooth bevel of approximately 1 or 2
mm, which should be kept clean as it will be the
bonding base for the polyurethane adhesive.
Should the paint be partially damaged, apply
some glass primer as a protection against
corrosion.

Note - Work only in well ventilated premises. The


polyurethane adhesive does not contain low
molecular weight (monomolecular) volatile
isocyanates. Therefore, there is no danger of
irritation for the respiratory tract. However, all
precautions required when using chemicals should
be observed. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

WARNING
1. Position the glass in its seat slightly pressing it.
Any variation to instructions specified, such as use
of materials after expire date or improper work
procedures, may negatively affect the results of the
operation. The manufacturer does not assume any
responsibility for damages which may derive to
persons and/or things.

Fig. 8-20

Note - The glass must be fitted to the machine within


maximum 15 minutes after applying the BETASEAL
sealant-adhesive.

Note - Work only in well ventilated premises. The


polyurethane adhesive does not contain low
molecular weight (monomolecular) volatile
isocyanates. Therefore, there is no danger of
irritation for the respiratory tract. However, all
precautions required when using chemicals should
be observed. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.

Note - The BETASEAL sealant-adhesive hardens


with air moisture. Hardening depends upon ambient
humidity and relative penetration degree. Therefore,
machine downtime ranges from 2 to 3 hours at a
temperature of 23°C. During this period the machine
should not be submitted to any stress whatever.

8.6 AIR CONDITIONING UNIT

8.6.1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS


The principle of operation can be summarised as follows: the refrigerant, Freon R134a, in its gaseous state, is
sucked by the compressor at a pressure of 1-5 bar and taken to a final compression at a pressure of 10-20 bar.
The gas, heated by the compression to 89-100 °C, flows, still in a gaseous state, into the condenser where, under
the effect of the cooling provided by the air flowing through it by the action created by the fan, reaches the
condensation point, passing into a liquid state at high pressure.
Subsequently, the refrigerant, at liquid state, reaches a dehydration filter, which has the function of capturing
impurities, absorb moisture trapped into the system and operate as a reserve reservoir for the refrigerant itself.
Then, the Freon reaches the expansion thermostatic valve, which has the purpose of regulating the refrigerant
flow into the evaporator at a pressure of 1~5 bar, causing its passage from liquid to gaseous state. At the same
time, the air flowing through the evaporator, under the action of the fan, having a temperature which is higher than
the refrigerator contained by the evaporator itself, causing its boiling and full evaporation, releasing heat.
The air, being cooled, deposits on the fins of the evaporator parts of its moisture content, under the form of little
drops, which drop into the tanks and are discharged outside the cab.
Air cooled and dehumidified, is sent into the cab. The refrigerant, at the outlet of evaporator, is sucked again by
the compressor, beginning a new cycle.
