NOTE

WARNING

Installation notes

1. It is important that you complete all the installation steps before operating the system.

2. Follow all safety precautions for under-hood mechanical work.

3. Use Loctite 242 or equivalent on all engine-mounted fasteners.

4. All hoses, tubes and wires which are re-routed or shifted during installation must be

secured so that they do not contact excessively hot areas or sharp edges. Where

possible, follow the routing suggestions in this manual.

5. These installation instructions are intended as a general guide. In some instances, due

to variations in vehicle manufacture or if prior modifications have been made to the

vehicle, it may be necessary to carry out grinding, bending or rearranging operations

for correct fit. These operations must follow sound, standard shop practices.

6. Left and right definitions in this manual are determined when sitting in the driver’s

seat, facing forward.

7. All fasteners must be of the correct size and torqued according to the following

specifications. Torque specifications are in foot pounds (ft-lb) and are only applicable when

Loctite is used. If the threads are dry, add 20% to the torque values. Check that system

hoses are all tight before running the system. Refer to setup procedure in the Owner’s

Manual before attempting to run this air system.

8. Different frame designations will affect the tank mounting position. You may have to move

the tank rearward from the standard position on your application. If you must move the

tank, the lines may be too short. If this is the case, measure the hose shortfall and order a

“Hose Extender Kit”, P/N (A410XXX)*

*The last three digits in the P/N indicate the length of the extension.

Example: A410055 is a 55-inch hose extender kit.

Trucks equipped with air brakes will require accessory pack # A700043. This

accessory pack contains the pressure switch used to sense engagement of the park

brake in air brake equipped vehicles.
