2.5 Installation Type (d) – Installation Kit
The installation kit was designed to provide adequate support of the DPF as well as simplify the DPF
installation. The installation kit also serves to protect the filter from minor external impact. Please follow the
instructions below to install the DPF using the installation kit.
1) If the DPF is to be mounted downstream of the original equipment muffler, then remove the original
muffler as it is a source of significant exhaust heat loss.
2) Determine a suitable space (inside or outside) the engine compartment for installation. Please take into
consideration the general installation guidelines in table 2.1.
3) Mount the installation kit base where previously determined using the hardware provided. Be sure to
use the provided vibration damping washers (i) to help isolate the DPF from engine vibrations.
4) Connect the engine exhaust to the DPF cones (ii) using tube clamps.
Note: The DPF should come with the filter already installed in the mounting kit with mounting bands (iii) and
touch-guard (iv) in place.
