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 in the system ID package. 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. This form can also be found online.

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 with

split loom or equivalent protection.

All trademarks used in this manual are the property of the respective copyright holder.

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 VMAC

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.

4.3 Filling the System with Oil

□ Remove the cardboard tag behind the oil filter on the AOST, lubricate

the seal and tighten the filter to the specification stated on the filter.

□ Remove the fill cap from the T-fitting on the compressor discharge

hose. (Figure 4.10)

Figure 4.10

□ Use a funnel and pour the supplied compressor oil into the

compressor.

You must use VMAC approved compressor oil in this

system. Failure to use this approved oil will result in damage

to the compressor and will void your warranty.

□ Allow 5 minutes for the oil to drain into the tank, and then check the

level at the sight glass located at the front of the tank. Continue adding

oil until the level is correct.

□ Install the fill plug in the inlet control valve and tighten it securely.

Do not overfill the system! Overfilling the system with oil

can flood the sight glass and make the system appear

empty.

compressor and connect green mating connectors.

□ Connect the interface cable to the control box.

□ Connect the Red wire from the interface connector to switched 12V.

□ Connect the Green wire from the interface connector to a good

ground.

□ Connect the white wire from the white interface connector to the

bullet connector on the compressor.

□ Insert the Black wire from the white interface connector into pin K of

the 21 pin Deutsch instrument panel connector. The mating

connector will be populated with a white wire at pin K.

□ Connect the battery.

5.2 Confirmation Test

□ Turn the engine ignition key “ON” but do not start the engine.

□ Check the control box to see if there is a number showing in the

display. If not, there is no power to the control box.

□ Press the “ON” button on the control box. The green light should come

on and you should hear the compressor clutch engage. Press the

“OFF” button. The green light should go off and the compressor clutch

will disengage.

The engine must be running to complete the final step in the

safety test. This will be done after the pre-start checks have

been completed.

If the system fails the test, check the wiring to make sure that all the

Connections are correct and secure. If you require additional assistance,

Contact VMAC. Call 1-888-241-2289 or 250-740-3200.

5.3 RPM Interlock

This system is equipped with an RPM interlock to prevent compressor

engagement at high RPM. Engine speed must be set below 1200RPM

for compressor system to engage. Once the compressor is running

engine speed can be increased above 1200 RPM.

If an attempt is made to start the compressor system above 1200RPM

an “RPM TOO HIGH” message will be displayed. The black wire

provides tach signal to the control box.
