Air Filter Relocation
Your air compressor came with two barbed fittings and an air filter housing.
Let’s start by taking the fitting on the left with the male thread and inserting it into the compressor
inlet. The other fitting (female end) can be threaded onto the filter housing directly. Your
compressor/filter should look like the image below. At this point, you can use the supplied 3/8” air
line to connect the compressor and filter together.
Route the air filter up to a high and dry location where it will not get wet or exposed to the
elements. The compressor itself is fully sealed but if your filter gets wet, the compressor can pull
water into itself and this will lead to problems later on down the road. Your compressor will last
much longer if the filter is relocated to a high and dry location. Be careful not to kink the air line
while routing the filter around.
*If your compressor is mounted outside where it is exposed to the elements, the filter MUST be
relocated.
