Mounting the Compressor

When mounting the compressor, care should be taken
to ensure that its location does not impede the
operation of other components on the vehicle.
Installation & Operation
For example, if your vehicle is equipped with a crane,
you must make sure the compressor will not interfere
with the swing of the crane.
compressor should be installed in an area that permits
cool ambient air to enter the air filter and the hot air
to exhaust without recirculating into the machine. A
minimum of 10" of clearance is needed for the hot
discharge air from the cooler. Cool ambient air is
drawn in from under the frame.
consideration in the mounting should be the routing
of hydraulic hoses. Be sure these can be safely run
to the hydraulic manifold on the machine. The unit
should be secured to the vehicle with four 3/8" grade
8 bolts, flat washers, and loc washers. Ensure that
you have a sub structure that will support the weight
of the compressor. Be sure to follow all National
Vehicle Safety Standards.
