F.  Suggested fittings for auxiliary air outlet: 

Use 3/8” air hose  
3/8” Quarter Turn Ball Valve 

 
Fittings per discharge: 

4 - #6 JIC x6 Push Loc 
2 - 

#6 JIC x1/2”NPT-M 90 

1 - 

#6 JIC x ¼”NPT-M 

– Bulkhead fitting, Waterous part # 2330003 

 
Fittings on all hoses should be 37° JIC 
 

G. Air distribution manifold: 

 
We suggest NPT fittings with the appropriate number and size ports.  However, the 
manifold can be built with air brake tubing if strict attention is paid to the inside diameters: 

.375” OD is .250” ID 
.500” OD is .375” ID  
.625” OD is .500” ID 
.750” OD is .625” ID 

 

 

SECTION 13.  AUTO-SYNC SYSTEM 

 

This seldom needs adjusting after the initial setup if the rest of the system is well 
maintained. 

 

Note:

  Do not adjust the Auto-Sync components to compensate for problems elsewhere 

in the CAFS system.  
 
Before you make any adjustments, make sure the oil level in the sump is correct, 
the air and oil filters are not overdue for servicing, the oil is not overdue for 
changing, the compressor is not overheating, the oil cooler strainer is clean, and 
the air lines do not have leaks. 
 
Always start by adjusting UNLOAD mode, then FIXED, then AUTO. 

 

A common problem is unauthorized adjustment of the balance valve in an attempt to 
improve performance.  
 
If unauthorized adjustments to the Auto-Sync are a problem we suggest placing a seal 
over the adjustment points.  This will let maintenance personnel know if the system has 
been tampered with.
