INSTALLATION
Pleasereadandfollowtheinstallationinstructionscarefullytoavoidinjuryordamagetothe
compressorandyourvehicle.Eachofouraircompressorsandpartshavebeencarefullyproduced
andpackaged.Beforeyoubegininstallation,pleasefamiliarizeyourselfwithInstallationPartsList
(Fig.1)ofthismanual.
Guidelines for Selecting Mounting Location:
The selection of proper mounting location for your air compressor will help ensure a long and
troublefreecompressorservicelife.Pleasepay close attentiontothefollowingguidelines:
1. Select a FLAT,UPRIGHTANDSECURE location where the compressor can be mounted.
2.Tomaximizeaircompressorperformance,locatecompressorasCLOSETOTHEBATTERY
aspossiblesothatlengthofpositiveleadwirerequiredisataminimum.
3. Choose mounting location that is as cool as possible and AWAYFROMHEATSOURCES.
Thecoolertheambienttemperaturethelesschancethecompressorwilloverheat.
4.Thiscompressorismoisture&splashresistant,butNOTWATERPROOF. Do not mount
compressor in locations where the unit is likely to come in contact with water.
5.Ifitisnecessarytomounttheaircompressorfurtherawayfromthebattery,suchasinside
yourvehicleorinthebedofyourpickup,useaminimum12AWGpositiveleadwirefor
