Relocating a compressor safely
Moving a compressor changes the path of its hoses, wiring and mounts, so the job is as much about clearance as it is about bolts. Keep belts, fan shrouds and steering components in view while routing lines, and avoid placing hoses where they can rub on the frame or heat from the exhaust.
Support the relocated unit firmly so it does not vibrate against the body, and check that it can be reached for service later. After the work, start the engine and look for leaks, chafing and loose fittings. Recheck the clamps after the first drive, since new routing often settles.
- Route hoses clear of moving parts and heat sources
- Use all supplied fasteners and check their torque
- Inspect fittings for leaks after the first drive
