AIR CONNECTIONS continued

A length of 5/32" [4 mm] O.D. air line for connection
between calipers and the air controls is supplied (See Table
5 for Air Line Specifications). Each caliper comes with one
Elbow Fitting, two Tee Fittings, and 13 1/2" [342.9 mm]
of air line.

NOTE

Use the length of air line supplied to make the

connections between calipers.

The Elbow and Tee Fittings (Items 15 and 16) are push-lock
fittings for instant connection and disconnection. To install
the Air Line, simply push it into the fitting until it stops. To
disconnect the Air Line, push on the fitting collar and pull
the Air Line out (See Figure 8).

NOTE

Not all fittings are used for making caliper

connections. Save extra fittings for use as

replacement parts.

SINGLE CALIPER CONNECTION

The Single Caliper Control (Product No. 854000) directs
air to a single caliper. It consists of a 3-Way, ON/OFF
toggle switch, a pressure regulator, and a 5-125 psi pres-
sure gauge (See Figure 9).

1. Install an Elbow Fitting into one caliper half and a Tee

Fitting into the other half (See Figure 10).

2. Connect the halves together using the 13-1/2"

[342.9 mm] length of Air Line. Push one end of the
tube into the elbow. Pass the other end through the
7/16" [11 mm] hole in the Housing and push it into
the Tee fitting (See Figure 10).

3. Connect opposite end of the Tee Fitting to control

output hose.

NOTE

Fitting (part number 2161) connects the control

panel to the caliper Air Line.

4. Connect air supply to the control input and set

regulator to the desired air pressure. With the toggle
switch in the ON position, air is directed through the
output to the caliper.
