CUTTING THE AIR LINES
Use a sharp knife or a hose cutter and make clean, square cuts (Fig. 7). Do not use scissors
or wire cutters because these tools will deform the air line. Do not cut the lines at an angle.
The minimum bend radius for 1/4" air line is 1". Air lines are to be installed straight into
fittings. Inspect the air line for scratches that run lengthwise. Contact Air Lift customer
service if the air line is damaged.
