1 EASYSTREET Air Commander MN-507 (03206) ECN 3921 Please read these instructions completely before proceeding with installation. The oil level in the compressor must be checked BEFORE running the engine or compressor. Failure to do so will result in a faulty compressor and a void warranty. Front View Side View Important Warranty Information 1. If the compressor or engine is run without having oil in the compressor, then the warranty is void. 2. If the belt is misinstalled or the belt does not have the proper tension, then the warranty is void. 3. Failure to use included installation components properly voids the warranty. 4. Failure to check proper oil level and conditions will void the warranty. 5. This compressor must only be used in an air compressor application only, not an air conditioning application. No freon is required. Installation Components Item Description Part Number Qty. Item Description Part Number Qty.

2 NOTE: This compressor will mount on the right (passenger) side of the engine. It may be necessary to relocate or remove the air conditioning lines. I. Assembling the Compressor 1. Attach the clutch to the compressor using the four bolts that come in the box with the clutch (Figure 2). Tighten the bolts securely. NOTE: Make sure that the wire is at the bottom right hand side of the compressor. 2. Place the pulley over the clutch and align the keyway. Attach the pulley using the provided hardware. Tighten securely to the shaft (Figure 4). Figure 2 3. Attach the small clamp that came with the clutch using bolt (M) and flat washer (N). Route the wire through the clamp (Figure 3). 4. Attach the plate (G) to the left side of the compressor (engine side) using bolts (P), lock washers (Q), and flat washers (N). Be sure to insert the carriage bolt (O) before bolting the plate down (Figure 5). NOTE: The long tab at the bottom of the bracket faces the rear of the compressor (Figure 5). Figure 3 Figure 4 Figure 5 2

3 II. Preparing the Vehicle 1. Remove the belt, belt tensioner, positive battery cable, back and side alternator bolts, computer and bracket, and radiator overflow. 2. It will be necessary to slightly bend the inner fender to obtain adequate clearance for the compressor. Use a pry bar or a 2 x 4 and pry using the frame (Figure 6). 3. Unbolt and move the evacuation line from the front of the manifold to the rear of the manifold (Figure 7). Figure 6 4. Remove and replace the tensioner pulley with the pulley (D) supplied. 5. Attach bracket (K) and tensioner pulley back onto the vehicle using the existing bolts removed (Figure 8). Tighten securely. 6. Remove and replace the alternator pulley with the new pulley (C) supplied. 7. Install the upper bracket (I) using the existing bolt previously removed (Figure 9). Leave loose at this time. 8. Install the back bracket (J) using the 8mm bolt (S), lock washer (U), and flat washer (T) provided. Figure 7 NOTE: The flange faces to the rear of the vehicle. Leave loose at this time. Figure 8 Figure 9 3

4 III. Installing the Compressor 1. Set the assembly unit in place. If the compressor still hits, remove the assembly and adjust the fender. 2. Insert the carriage bolt protruding from the compressor mounting plate through the top bracket. Attach using the flat washer (N), lock washer (Q), and nut (R). Leave loose at this time. 3. Insert three carriage bolts (O) through the bottom mounting holes and attach with flat washers (N), lock washers (Q), and nut (R). Leave loose at this time (Figure 10). 4. Tighten all the support bracket mounting bolts at this time (i.e., alternator, idler pulley, etc.). Figure Install the new serpentine belt (with air (A), NAPA part # or without air (B), NAPA part # ). Route the belt per Figure 11. NOTE: Figure 11 is without air conditioning. 6. Be sure that the compressor and belt are fully aligned before securing the mounting hardware. If not aligned, unattach the belt and adjust the compressor as needed. Tighten all mounting and bracket hardware only when all is fully aligned. 7. Attach the negative cable, alternator wire, and clutch wire to the compressor using clamp (V), bolt (M), and flat washer (N) supplied (Figure 12). Figure 11 IV. Reinstalling the Computer 1. Attach the computer bracket (F) to the fender using existing nuts previously removed (Figure 13). 2. Attach the computer to the bracket using bolt (W), flat washer (Y), and nut (AA) supplied. Attach the wiring harness to the computer, if disconnected. Figure 12 Figure 13 4

5 V. Installing the Radiator Overflow Reservoir 1. Remove the two bolts on the ABS/brake bracket on the driver side fender (Figure 14) and attach the bracket (H) to the ABS brake bracket using existing bolts removed. 2. Loosely attach the reservoir (E) to the bracket using bolts (W), flat washer (Y), and nuts (AA). 3. Mark the fender at the bottom using the bottom hole on the reservoir, center punch and drill a 1 /4" hole, being careful no to drill the tire. Reattach the reservoir in all three mounting locations. Figure Pull the overflow hose out of the clamps under the radiator. Reroute to the bottom of the reservoir. Cut and attach the hose using clamp (AB) provided. Fill the radiator half way with radiator fluid (Figure 14). VI. Checking the Belt 1. Attach the positive battery cable. 2. Check all hardware to be sure that it is secure. 3. Start the engine and observe the belt and pulley for alignment. NOTE: DO NOT ENGAGE THE CLUTCH YET. Adjust if necessary. VII. Install Appropriate Base Kit 1. To finish the installation, install kit or supporting base kit, per instructions. Important Warranty Information 1. If the compressor or engine is run without having oil in the compressor, then the warranty is void. 2. If the belt is misinstalled or the belt does not have the proper tension, then the warranty is void. 3. Failure to use included installation components properly voids the warranty. 4. Failure to check proper oil level and conditions will void the warranty. 5. This compressor must only be used in an air compressor application only, not an air conditioning application. No freon is required. 6. It is necessary to periodically check the filter for trapped oil. This needs to be performed three or four times a year. Failure to do so will result in reduced component life. 5
