(4) - Pneumatic System Installation
• The Optimizer Basket System has an air requirement of 120 psi of clean, dry air. A 12-volt, 50% duty
cycle air compressor with one gallon tank is recommended.
• The system uses 1/4” OD Push-to-Connect Air Line.
• The line should be secured with zip ties. Do not crush air line by overtightening zip ties.
• Test air line fitment on one row before routing all rows.
• Rows are designed to be tied into the main line and secured to the toolbar.
• Make sure air line is secured and free of any pinch or wear points through the entire movement of the
row unit and toolbar.
• To ensure sealing, tube ends need to be cut smooth and square.
• Ensure regulator exhaust line is routed out away from regulator and down to prevent moisture from
entering into the system.
