Installing the rapid blow down cap for the 9203044 tank
1. Place the standard transmission in neutral or the automatic transmission in park
and fully apply the park brake.
2. If the system has been operated, allow at least 10 minutes so that all air pressure
can vent.
3. Clean loose debris from the area around the rear end of the air/oil tank to prevent
contamination.
4. Remove the discharge air hose and fittings from the tank, (figure 1).
5. Remove the pressure control and scavenge line from the rear end cap of the
system air/oil tank. Move the hoses, (carefully to avoid twisting the lines out of
the way, (figure 1).
6. Remove the six (6) flange bolts retaining the tank end cap housing at the rear of
the tank. Care should be taken when removing the six flange bolts completely out
as the coalescing element is spring loaded against the inside of the end cap,
(figure 2).
