Initial Testing of the AirNut
1. Look through the center hole of the AirNut,
depress and release thumb lever; there should be
noticeable movement of the partial nut, the assembly
should work smoothly.
2. Depress the thumb lever and slide the AirNut
over the arbor shaft. Release thumb lever, pull out-
ward to make sure it is held fast to the arbor shaft.
3. Depress the thumb lever and slide the AirNut off
the arbor shaft.
4. Temporally connect air to the Regulator/Inflator
assembly, and check to see that it will inflate the air
chamber of the AirNut. When fully inflated the piston
will have moved outward 1.250" (31.75mm).
5. Depress the yellow button to exhaust air from the
air chamber. The piston should retract.
6. The pressure cup and the No Mar Ring “snap”
into place on the front end of the AirNut.
Find the most convenient and handy spot on the

ulator assembly as shown in figure 5 below.
