assembly on smaller pipes, orient the mounting clips with their notches toward

the pipe, as shown it FIGURE 5-2. For larger pipes, orient the mounting clips

with their notches away from the pipe, as shown in FIGURE 5-3.

Orienting the mounting clip with its notch against the mounting

pipe will help to prevent rotation of the intake assembly, which

can happen for small-diameter pipes. For larger pipe diameters,

greater than approximately 3.9 cm (1.5 in), it may become

difficult to install the intake assembly because of the length of

the bolts. Reversing the clip allows it to fit on a larger-diameter

pipe.

In some mounting situations it may be easier to access the wing nuts if they are

on the other side.

Loosen the wing nuts but do not remove them completely to avoid the risk of

dropping them. Place the assembly against the vertical support, swing the

bracket around the back of the vertical support, slide the bolt into the slot and

hand tighten the wing nuts. A typical installation of an AP200 intake assembly

on pipes of differing diameters is shown in FIGURE 5-4.
