LOCATION
FOR
THE
CONTROL
PANEL
Select a mounting surface under the dashboard or other protected location.
Using the control panel as a template, mark each of the mounting points with a
center punch. Drill a 3/16" diameter hole on each center mark see Figure "B".
Do not attach the control panel at this time.

THE
COMPRESSOR
Install the rubber isolator feet to the compressor from the bottom of the
compressor foot. Insert the brass sleeve into the top of the rubber isolator foot
see Figure "C". Install the push-to-connect male fitting into the threaded
exhaust port on the compressor head see Figure "A". Tighten the fitting
sufficiently to engage at least two threads with pre-applied orange thread
sealant. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE FITTING. Install the air filter into the
threaded inlet port on the compressor head (finger tight).

OUNT
THE
COMPRESSOR
Begin by removing the negative battery cable. Select a convenient location
to mount the compressor. This location should provide ample air flow and be
protected from airborne debris and moisture. The mounting surface should be
rigid to support the compressor, such as under the hood on a fender well or in
a vented storage compartment. The compressor is oil-less and can be mounted
in any orientation necessary for installation.
Using the compressor template and a center punch, mark and drill three
3/16" holes. Any burrs in the holes should be removed to prevent damage to the
rubber isolators. Mount the compressor using the supplied 10 -32 x 1" machine
screws, 10 -32 lock nuts, and 3/16" washers see Figure "C". Maximum
vibration isolation can be achieved by properly mounting the compressor. The
machine screw and nut should be tightened only enough to bottom-out the brass
insert see Figure "C". DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Overtightening will crush
the brass insert and the rubber isolator, thereby reducing vibration isolation.

OUTE
THE
AIR
LINE
Before installing the air line tubing, ensure that there is no pressure in the air
springs. To release the air pressure, remove the valve core from the manual
inflation valves or release the pressure by using a tire gauge to depress the valve
stem.

CONTROL

PANEL
Cut a piece of air line tubing that will reach from the control panel to the
compressor. Cut the air line tubing as squarely as possible and install the tubing
on to the barbed fitting on the back of the switch marked SUP (supply) see
Figures "A" & "D". Before attaching the air line tubing to the control panel,
soak the end (1") of the air line in warm water for a few minutes to soften the
tubing. Do not use pliers to work the tubing on to the barbed fitting, as the tubing
may be damaged. It may be necessary to drill a hole in the firewall to route the
tubing. Do not fold or kink the tubing. Ensure that the tubing is protected from
sharp edges when passing through the firewall.

SPRINGS
Cut a length of air line tubing that will reach from the control panel to the rear of the vehicle. Slide the tubing as far as possible
onto the barbed fitting marked DEL (delivery) on the back of the paddle switch see Figures "A" & "D". Before attaching the air
line tubing to the barbed fitting on the gauge panel, soak the end of the tube (1") in hot water for a few minutes to soften the tubing.
Do not use pliers to work the tubing on to the barbed fitting, as the tubing may be damaged. Install a T-fitting on the opposite end
of the tubing at the rear of the vehicle. Route a length of air line tubing from the T-fitting to each air spring. Use the suppled nylon
ties to secure the tubing to the vehicle. Make sure that the tubing is protected from sharp edges when passing through the firewall.
