A length of 5/32" [4 mm] O.D. air line for connection
between calipers and the air controls is supplied (See Table

Elbow Fitting, two Tee Fittings, and 13 1/2" [342.9 mm]
of air line.

the Air Line, simply push it into the fitting until it stops. To
disconnect the Air Line, push on the fitting collar and pull
the Air Line out (See Figure 8).

SINGLE CALIPER CONNECTION
The Single Caliper Control (Product No. 854000) directs
air to a single caliper. It consists of a 3-Way, ON/OFF
toggle switch, a pressure regulator, and a 5-125 psi pres-
sure gauge (See Figure 9).
1. Install an Elbow Fitting into one caliper half and a Tee
Fitting into the other half (See Figure 10).
2. Connect the halves together using the 13-1/2"
[342.9 mm] length of Air Line. Push one end of the
tube into the elbow. Pass the other end through the
7/16" [11 mm] hole in the Housing and push it into
the Tee fitting (See Figure 10).
3. Connect opposite end of the Tee Fitting to control
output hose.
NOTE
Fitting (part number 2161) connects the control
panel to the caliper Air Line.
4. Connect air supply to the control input and set
regulator to the desired air pressure. With the toggle
switch in the ON position, air is directed through the
output to the caliper.
