3 Installing the Air Locker

 Install the spring clip by first hooking both ends of the clip into the

small aligned cutouts of the seal housing and the adjuster nut, and

then snapping the clip into the groove of the seal housing using a

screwdriver. (Fig.9.)

Figure 9.

 Check that the seal housing is now secured from rotating and that it

is still sitting flat against the adjuster nut.

3.7 Setting up the Bulkhead Fitting

 Apply thread sealant to the threads of the bulkhead body.

 Screw the bulkhead body into the tapped hole, and tighten.

 Wipe the area clean of any excess thread sealant (inside and

outside of the housing).

 Without using sharp, jagged tools such as pliers (your hands are

the best tool for this job), bend the seal housing tube on the outside

of the housing to approximate the finished profile. This will allow the

tube to be trimmed to a length that would allow it to protrude from

the bulkhead fitting. (Figs.11.,12. & 13.)

IMPORTANT:

The seal housing must still be able to freely float after the tube

is connected to the bulkhead fitting. Therefore, it is critical to

ensure that the tube is not under any tension. To avoid this

always leave the tube long enough so that a hook shape can be

formed between the seal housing and the bulkhead.
