PREPARATION AND PRECAUTIONS

1.

For ease of installation of your banks system,

familiarize yourself with the procedure by reading

the entire manual before starting work. This instruction

manual contains 20 pages of text, illustrations and parts

listing.

2.

Throughout this manual, the left-side of the vehicle

refers to the driver’s side, and the right-side to the

passenger’s side.

3.

This banks system is designed to fit class-a

cummins b5.9l powered pusher motorhomes with

horsepower ratings of 190, 210 or 230 hp. For further

identification check the cpl number on the engine

information tag located on the timing cover. This manual

applies to cpl’s 0987, 1261, 1552 and 1553.

4.

Disconnect the ground cable from the battery

before beginning work. if there are two batteries,

disconnect both.

5.

route and tie wires and hoses a minimum of 6

inches away from exhaust heat, moving parts and

sharp edges. clearance of 8 inches or more is

recommended where possible.

6.

during installation, keep the work area clean. if

foreign debris is transferred to any banks

powerpack component, clean it thoroughly before

installing. cleanliness is also important on and around the

engine. because diesel pushers tend to gather a large

amount of grease and dirt in the engine compartment,

steam cleaning or pressure washing the engine prior to

the stinger installation is recommended. use an engine

degreaser on and around the injection pump cover and

the injector line fittings.
