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.
