CONNECTING THE AIR LINES

Important General Instructions

The instructions that follow apply to all installations of the
AD-SP

air dryer regardless of whether the AD-SP

air

dryer is replacing an existing air dryer or is being installed
on a vehicle that never had one installed.

If the vehicle is currently equipped with an air dryer some
additional considerations apply.

A. If the AD-SP

air dryer is replacing an integral purge air

dryer, such as the Bendix

®

AD-9

air dryer, on a vehicle

equipped with any compressor except the Cummins-
Holset type E & QE, all that is necessary is that the air
dryer be removed and the existing air lines be correctly
connected to the AD-SP

air dryer.
