Important Information

The information in this manual is intended for certified VMAC installers

who have been trained in installation procedures and for people with

mechanical trade certification who have the tools and equipment to

properly and safely perform the installation. Do not attempt this

installation if you do not have the appropriate mechanical training,

knowledge and experience.

Follow all safety precautions for underhood mechanical work. Any

grinding, bending or restructuring operations for correct fit in modified

vehicles must follow standard shop practices.

All hoses, tubes, and wires which are rerouted or shifted

during installation must be secure so that they do not

contact excessively hot areas or sharp edges. Where

possible follow the routing suggestions in this manual.

The VMAC warranty form is located at the back of this manual. This

warranty form must be completed and mailed or faxed to VMAC at the

time of installation for any subsequent warranty claim to be considered

valid.

To order parts, contact your VMAC dealer. Your dealer will ask for the

VMAC serial number, part number, description and quantity. To locate

your nearest dealer, call 1-888-241-2289.

VMAC recommends covering all hoses and wires for

protection.

General Information

Before You Start

Read this manual before attempting installation so that you can

familiarize yourself with the components and how they fit on the

vehicle. Identify variations for different engine models and different

situations that are listed in the manual. Open the package, unpack

the components and identify them.

All fasteners must be torqued to specifications. Use manufacturers

torque values for OEM fasteners. Apply Loctite 242 or equivalent

on all engine-mounted fasteners. Torque values are with Loctite

applied unless otherwise specified.

Hose Information

Different frame designations will affect the tank mounting position. If

you have to move the tank, the lines may be too short. Measure the

hose shortfall and order a Hose Extender Kit. Depending on other

installed equipment, it might be necessary to move the air/oil

separator tank from its intended location. The hoses used in VMAC

compressor systems have a specific inner liner that is

compatible with our compressor oil. Use of hoses other than

those supplied or recommended by VMAC may cause

compressor damage and may void your warranty. Please contact

VMAC for replacement hoses and further information.
