(SEE FIGURE 4-2: “DOT AIR BOTTLE CYLINDER ASSEMBLY LAYOUT DIMEN-
SIONS,” ON PAGE 26.)
WHEN DETERMINING THE LOCATION FOR THE AIR BOTTLE CYLINDER
ASSEMBLY (WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE VALVE ASSEMBLY), IT IS RECOM-
MENDED TO INSTALL THE SYSTEM “ABOVE” THE PUMP WITH DOWNWARD
SLOPPING LINES TO PROMOTE POSITIVE DRAINAGE.
KEEP IN MIND PIPING RUNS, CABLE ROUTING, VISIBILITY, REQUIRED
OPERATOR ACCESS TO VALVE SHUT-OFFS AND OTHER INTERFERENCES
THAT COULD HINDER OR INTERFERE WITH PROPER SYSTEM
PERFORMANCE.
ALSO ENSURE THE ASSEMBLY IS INSTALLED IN AN AREA AFFORDING PRO-
TECTION FROM ROAD DEBRIS AND EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILDUP AND WITH
THE LEAST EXPOSURE TO ACCIDENTAL IMPACT.
Drill the corresponding mounting holes and use minimum 5/8”, Grade 8
bolts with flat washers and lock nuts to bolt-down the air cylinder bracketry.
(See Figure 4-2: “DOT Air Bottle Cylinder Assembly Layout Dimensions,” on
page 26.)
An installation diagram is also located at the back of this manual to assist
with overall dimensions and clearances required for the various mounting
configurations. See Contents for a listing of the drawings.
For plumbing requirements, proceed to heading 4.7 “Plumbing” on page 31.
