Tire Hose Installation

1.

Position the hubcap and wheel so the hoses will not
stretch or rub on the wheel. See the Configuration,
Clocking , and Tire Hose Selection Chart on page 25.

CAUTION: Wheel must be properly “clocked” to hub-
cap to prevent hoses rubbing on the wheel. Failure to
do so may result in hose failure.

2.

Screw the inverted flare nut on the tire hose tee fit-
ting into the rotary joint’s bulkhead adapter and
tighten finger tight. Tighten with a wrench an addi-
tional 1/4 turn. See illustration below.

3.

Attach tire hose and check valve assemblies to the
tee fitting.

4.

Install tire hoses on the tire valves and tighten with
fingers.

5.

Tighten the tee or straight fitting to the tire hoses.

CAUTION: Using a wrench or pliers to tighten the tire
hose to the valve stem, tee, or straight fitting may
damage the gasket causing a leak or decreased perfor-
mance.
