General Information

Optional Equipment Compatibility

While VMAC strives to design systems compatible with optional OEM equipment 

(such as running boards), it is impractical to develop systems that accommodate 

every OEM and aftermarket option or add-on. Whenever possible, VMAC 

endeavors to advise of compatibility issues in the “Additional Application 

Information” section of the manual. Even when specific optional equipment is 

determined by VMAC to be incompatible, it does not preclude the vehicle upfitter 

or end user from modifying the optional equipment to make it compatible with 

the installed VMAC system. VMAC does not warranty or accept responsibility or 

liability for the fitment, function or safety of any products modified in any way not 

expressly outlined in the installation manual.

Before Starting

Note and label all parts that are removed from the vehicle as many 

of the OEM parts will be reused during the installation of the VMAC 

system. 

Read this manual prior to beginning the installation to ensure familiarity with the 

components and how they will fit on the vehicle. Identify any variations from the 

application list such as vehicle model, engines, or optional equipment (e.g., dual 

alternator, active steering assist, etc.).
Open the package, unpack the components and identify them using the Illustrated 

Parts List (IPL) included in the Fastener Pack. 

Hose Information

Depending on other installed equipment, it might be necessary to move the air/oil 

separation tank from its intended location. The hoses used in VMAC compressor 

systems have a specific inner liner that is compatible with VMAC compressor oil. 

Use of hoses other than those supplied or recommended by VMAC may cause 

compressor damage and may void your warranty. Please contact VMAC for 

replacement hoses and further information.

Ordering Parts

To order parts, contact a VMAC dealer. The dealer will ask for the VMAC serial 

number, part number, description and quantity. Locate the nearest dealer online at 

www.vmacair.com/dealer-locator or call 1-877-912-6605.
