Attach rivet nuts to the truck body. Use rivet nuts provided (or McMaster-Carr
®
#95105A143). Use an appropriate tool
such as McMaster-Carr
®
#95585A600 plus mandrel set 95585A650. In order: The first thing to go on the bolt is the
lock washer, followed by the flat washer, then through the condenser, then into the rivet nut. In addition to the supplied
lock nuts, use a thread locker such as blue Loctite
®
243 or equal on the bolts that mount the condenser to the rivet
nuts. Follow all manufacturer recommendations. Do NOT rely on sheetmetal screws (such as “self-tappers”) to attach
the condenser to the truck body. These may loosen over time, and the condenser may fall off.

kind of heat-generating source. Also be sure that they are securely fastened with the proper cable ties for a neat installation.

Connect line sets to the condenser and be sure to lubricate the male fittings with light machine oil before connecting
and tightening. Remember, it is normal to hear a slight hiss when connecting. Tighten to 10-12 ft lbs.

Before connecting fan plugs together, make sure all debris is cleaned from seal surface on the male plug and make
sure female receptacle is clear of any debris. Make sure that wires leaving plugs are allowed to exit straight from plugs,
without any hard bends.
