General Information

Optional Equipment Compatibility

While VMAC strives to design systems compatible with optional OEM equipment

(such as running boards), it is impractical to develop systems that accommodate

every OEM and aftermarket option or add-on. Whenever possible, VMAC endeavors

to advise of compatibility issues in the “Additional Application Information” section

of the manual. Even when specific optional equipment is determined by VMAC

to be incompatible, it does not preclude the vehicle upfitter or end user from

modifying the optional equipment to make it compatible with the installed VMAC

system. VMAC does not warranty or accept responsibility or liability for the fitment,

function or safety of any products modified in any way not expressly outlined in the

installation manual.

Before Starting

Read this manual prior to beginning the installation to ensure familiarity with the

components and how they will fit on the vehicle. Identify any variations from the

application list such as vehicle model, engines, or optional equipment (e.g., dual

alternator, active steering assist, etc.).

Open the package, unpack the components and identify them using the IPL

included in the Fastener Pack.

Hose Information

Depending on other installed equipment, it might be necessary to move the air/oil

separation tank from its intended location. The hoses used in VMAC compressor

systems have a specific inner liner that is compatible with VMAC compressor oil.

Use of hoses other than those supplied or recommended by VMAC may cause

compressor damage and may void your warranty. Please contact VMAC for

replacement hoses and further information.

Ordering Parts

To order parts, contact a VMAC dealer. The dealer will ask for the VMAC serial

number, part number, description and quantity. Locate the nearest dealer online at

www.vmacair.com/dealer-locator or call 1-877-912-6605.

Preparation for installation is very important. Missing a step

or an item can cause problems in the installation or damage to

components.

☑

Check off each item as it is completed so that no steps are

missed.

☐ Review the contents of the system using the illustrated parts list to ensure all

components are present and in the correct quantity. If any components are

missing, have the system ID ready and call VMAC Technical Support at

(888) 241-2289.

The VMAC warranty form must be completed and returned to VMAC

at the time of installation for any subsequent warranty claim to be

considered valid.

☐ Complete the warranty form. The VMAC warranty form is located at the back

of this manual, as well as online at: www.vmacair.com/warranty

The System Identification Plate must be attached to the vehicle at

the time of installation. This plate provides information that allows

VMAC to assist with parts and repairs.

☐ Mark and drill 2 × 7/64 in holes in the top of the cross member in front of the

hood support. Secure the plate with the supplied self-tapping screws (Figure 1).

Figure 1 — System Identification Plate
