Compressor Clutch Coil: Service Precautions

CAUTION:
- Do not use screwdrivers between the clutch plate assembly and pulley to remove front plate as this may damage the front plate assembly.
- If snap ring is not fully seated it will vibrate out, resulting in a clutch failure and severe damage to the front face of the compressor.
- Do not mar the pulley frictional surface.
