IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE NOTE:
Extreme care should be taken to mount the compressor on the ADA brake booster mounting bracket
in such a way that the compressor mounting bolts do not interfere with any brake lines running
below the bracket. If the mounting bracket is not installed precisely and with care, the brake lines
on your Jeep JK may come into close proximity with the compressor’s mounting hardware and
mounting bracket. Damage to brake lines from continued contact can cause brake system failure.
If you have any questions, please contact VIAIR Corporation at 949-585-0011.

INSTALLATION
Please read and follow the installation instructions carefully to avoid injury or damage to the
compressor or your vehicle.
Each of our air compressors and parts have been carefully produced and packaged. Before you
begin installation, please familiarize yourself with ADA System Components List of this manual.
Guidelines for Selecting Mounting Location:
The selection of proper mounting location for your air compressor will help ensure a long and trouble
free compressor service life. Please pay close attention to the following guidelines:
FOR UNIVERSAL MODELS:
1. Select a FLAT, UPRIGHT AND SECURE location where the compressor can be mounted.
FOR ALL MODELS:
2. The cooler the ambient temperature, the less chance the compressor will overheat. For prolonged
use (tire lling) open your hood to allow maximum cooling of the compressor unit.
3. This compressor is moisture & dust resistant, but NOT DIRT OR WATERPROOF. Do not mount
compressor in locations where the unit is likely to come in contact with the elements.
4. Always utilize the supplied remote lter mounting option, and route the air line from compressor
air inlet to remote inlet air lter located in a clean and dry area. Secure the air lter to keep it from
dislodging and becoming damaged.
FOR UNIVERSAL MODELS:
5. If it is necessary to mount the air compressor further away from the battery, such as inside
your vehicle or in the bed of your pickup, use the appropriate gauge wire for the amp draw of the
compressor and distance from the battery. When in doubt, use the next larger wire gauge size.

MOUNTING AND WIRING
1. Disconnect ground cable from vehicle’s battery.
2. Position the air compressor in the location where it will be mounted. If brake booster mounting
is provided/desired, based on type of ADA System, install brake booster bracket either with the
compressor in place, or afterwards if this eases installation.
3. Note: If your ADA System is equipped with a brake booster bracket, you must remove the
corresponding hardware from the brake booster to properly install the booster bracket. Reinstall
all removed hardware, following the manufacturer’s torque specications for installation of any
hardware removed.
4. For 2007-2011 JK Models, the compressor intake lter should face the vehicle’s rewall.
Quick connect coupling should face radiator support.
5. For Universal Models, mount air compressor to either a at surface or to the brake booster
mounting bracket with the bolts, nuts, washers, and locking washers provided.
6. NOTE: For remote inlet air lter installation, refer to instructions included in the Remote Inlet
Air Filter Pack.
7. Route the provided wiring harness from the mounting location of the ADA System to the battery
of your vehicle. Secure the harness as needed at several points, to avoid abrasion and other
possible damage resulting from movement during vehicle use. Special care must be taken when
routing the harness through sheetmetal to avoid abrasion.
8. Make sure that your compressor setup is properly fused by installing the provided fuse in the
wiring harness assembly.
9. Before connecting to power source, re-check your system to make sure that all electrical
connections are made properly.
10. Connect power lead of the wiring harness to the battery. It is recommended to provide switched
power for the system, that is only turned on when the ignition of the vehicle is also energized in
case of any air leaks that may allow the system to turn on and drain your battery during periods
when the vehicle might remain parked. This is especially important when using a small reservoir,
as is supplied with all ADA Systems.
11. Connect the ADA System’s Delphi connector to corresponding Delphi plug connector of the
wiring harness provided.
12. Ensure that the drain valve located on the underside of the ADA System reservoir is closed.
13. When power is made available to the ADA system, the system will automatically turn on
and ll the ADA reservoir.
14. When the cutoff pressure of the ADA System has been reached, the system will
shut off automatically.
15. Inspect all air line connections for leaks with soap and water solution. If a leak is detected, the
connection may not be made properly. Re-do any connections that are leaking. The use of
thread locker is recommended for all ttings. (Avoid the use of Teon tape).
