  • Page 4 STEP 3 – AIR CONTROL AIRLINE AND WIRING CONNECTION The paddle switches have two groups of white wires linked together from each switch as shown. One group of wires is to be connected to the black wire from the compressor (remove the ring terminal fitted) using the crimp terminal supplied. The second group of wires is to be connected to Earth using the crimp terminal and ring terminal (if required).
  • Page 5 STEP 5 – MOUNT AIR COMPRESSOR Disconnect ground (-i.e. earth) cable from the vehicle's battery(s). Temporarily position the air compressor where it will be mounted and mark the mounting bolt hole positions. Check air filter position and hose routing as required. Mount the air compressor using the supplied bolts, washers and nuts as shown.
  • Page 6 STEP 7 – CONNECT AIR COMPRESSOR INLET FILTER Confirm the air filter configuration based on the compressor mounting location. If in a protected location the filter can be mounted close to the compressor inlet as shown to the right. If the compressor is mounted where water or debris ingress may occur the air filter must be remote mounted using the supplied parts as shown below.
  • Page 7 STEP 9 – LEAK TEST INFLATE the system and the airbags to their maximum allowed pressure (See Pressure Advice in Airbag Owner's Manual) and check for leaks at all connections using soapy water spray. We recommend a soapy water spray solution of 25% soap to 75% water. DEFLATE If no leaks deflate airbags to required height.
