HoW BIG oF A Hole SHoUld I dRIll?

  To eliminate any potential problems, 

Voltair recommends adding extra protection around the wires and hose (such 
as running the wires and hose through another hose, or use a rubber grommet).  
However you decide, drill a hole at least 1/8” bigger than the outside diameter  

of the hose/wires that will be run through the floor of your location.

Once the 12-Voltair is securely fastened to the vehicle go to next page.

FINDINg A LOCATION

Once you have decided on a location for the 12-Voltair...

1) Set the unit into position

2) Mark the 3 holes on the right side of the compressor base  

onto the floor of your location.

3) Mark the 4 mounting holes of the base of the 12-Voltair on  

the floor of your location 

4) Set the unit aside and get ready to drill some holes

5) Drill your holes
 

- 3/8” hole for 5/16” x 1 1/2” mounting bolts

- holes for electrical and plumbing

 
6) Once your holes are drilled, move the 12-Voltair back into position 
and use the provided 5/16” x 1 1/2” bolts, lock washer and nut to 

secure it to the floor.  If possible also drill through the side of the 

12-Voltair cabinet to secure it at a higher point.
 

a) Deck Mount- use all 4 mounting holes in base of the 12- 

Voltair frame.

b) Bed Side Mount- use at least 2 of the for mounting    

holes on the base of the 12-Voltair as well as 2    

holes higher up  on the back of cabinet as shown in the    

above diagram.

Here is an example of securing the cabinet ‘at a 

higher point’ for a bed side mount

Here is an example of 

protecting wires by either 

using ‘another hose’ or 

‘rubber grommet.’
