□
Apply Loctite and install the VR tensioner and the idlers on the
bracket. Torque the fasteners to specifications.
5.3 Connecting the Hoses
□
Route the short 1/2 inch hose from the cooler up in front of the
steering box and connect the straight end to the fitting on the
side of the compressor. Tighten the fittings at both ends of the
hose.
□
Connect the 45 degree end of the 3/4 inch hose fitting to the
fitting on the back of the compressor but do not tighten until all
hose routing is completed. Loop it so that it forms a smooth
curve. The hose will run close to the booster, but must be routed
so that it does not rub on the booster. Tighten the fittings at both
ends of the hose.
No part of the 3/4 inch hose can be higher than the
compressor. If it is, the system will not function
correctly. Make sure that the hose does not rest on any
engine wire harness or other components behind the
compressor that could be damaged by heat.
