How to Install the Air Lines and Hose

Special Instructions

Make sure air lines and hose are not damaged.

Install the air lines and hose at their proper location.

All externally threaded 1/8" or 5/32" air lines and pipe fittings that are not coated with pre-applied thread sealant must be coated with Eaton sealing material #71209 or equivalent for at least 5 complete and consecutive threads.

All externally threaded 1/4" air fittings that are not coated with pre-applied thread sealant must be coated with Eaton sealing material #71209 or equivalent for at least 3 complete and consecutive threads.

For the 1/4" I.D. air hoses, install the fixed nut end first.

To install the air lines and hose, the air filter/regulator must be in position.

If you are unsure of the air lines and hose location, see the Air System “Troubleshooting/Operation Guide” TRTS-0920.
