NOTE: Some kits include parts specific to that kit, these are noted next to that part.

Step 1.) HORN INSTALLATION
Mount the four black Shocker bells in the direction as seen in the photo to the left. Each small nut located at the opening of the bell can be tightened down with a 3/8 socket, and the rear nut with a 1/2 wrench.

Step 2.) TANK FITTINGS
Assemble the two-gallon tank as seen below. Make sure to use the supplied Teflon tape on all fittings that don’t already have a pre-applied PTFE paste. Follow diagram 6.1 for models with the 485C compressor, and follow diagram 6.2 for models with the 380C, 400C, & 444C compressors.

Step 3.) TANK MOUNTING

1. Using the supplied tank mounting hardware, mount the two-gallon tank with the drain port facing down towards the horns.
2. The tank is mounted on the side of the bracket with the longest Shocker bell.

Step 4.) VALVE AND HORN FITTINGS
Mount the valve on the bracket using the supplied hardware and level with the air outlet on the tank. The tank kit includes 4 x1/8 female to5/16 PTC elbow fittings, labeled with a on the diagram. Screw one fitting onto each of the air inlets of the bells that are protruding through the bracket.

NOTE: These elbows do not need to be installed with Teflon.

Step 5.) VALVE PLUMBING

1. Cut pieces 2, 3, 4, and 5: Run from the 4-way tee off the valve to each individual elbow on the horns, labeled with an on the diagram below.
2. The 1 2 airline goes in between inlet fittings and (labeled in the diagram below). “ / 1 2
3. Cut pieces 2, 3, 4, and 5 out of the skinnier 5 16 airline at all equal lengths of 18” “
4. Cut one piece of the airline (the thicker of the two airlines) at a length of 1 4 using the supplied airline cutter. “ 1 2 5 / “ /

NOTE: Very minor adjustments may need to be made to the airlines for best fitment

NOTE: Use Step 6.1 onlywith kit#HK-S4-2485

**COMPRESSOR & PRESSURE SWITCH MOUNTING 485C SERIES COMPRESSOR

ONLY**

1. Locate the compressor mounting hardware in the part box and place the compressor in the bracket as shown in the photo above, aligning the mounting holes with the mounting slots on the bracket.

2. Loosely tighten down the 4 bolts with a Phillips head screwdriver and a 9/32 socket until the compressor sits snug.

3. Apply Teflon to the threads of the compressor check valve before wrapping it around the backside of the bracket then up into the tank on the side of the bracket where it can be tightened into the the3/8 street elbow.
   WARNING: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE CHECK VALVE, FINGER TIGHT + 1/4 TURN ONLY.

4. Once the check valve has been tightened down go back and finish fully tightening down the compressor mounting hardware.\

5. Remove the pressure switch from its packaging and locate the center point on your tank. Using the – reducer and run tee mount the pressure switch to the tank. Start by hand tightening the pressure switch into place followed by one-half turn clockwise with a wrench.
   WARNING: DO! NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE SWITCH, FINGER TIGHT+ 1/4 TURN ONLY

NOTE: Use Step 6.2 only with kit#HK-S2-232, 240 & 244

COMPRESSOR & PRESSURE SWITCH MOUNTING 380C/400C/444C SERIES COMPRESSORS ONLY

1. Locate the compressor mounting hardware in the part box and place the compressor in the bracket as shown in the photo above, aligning the mounting holes with the mounting slots on the bracket.

2. Loosely tighten down the 4 bolts with a Phillips head screwdriver and a socket until the compressor sits snug.

3. Apply Teflon to the threads of the compressor check valve before wrapping it around the backside of the bracket then up through the side of the bracket into the center where it can be tightened into the 1/4 Run Tee.
   WARNING: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE CHECK VALVE, FINGER TIGHT + 1/4 TURN ONLY.

4. Once the check valve has been tightened down go back and finish fully tightening down the compressor mounting hardware.

5. Remove the pressure switch from it’s packaging and locate the front port on your tank. Use the the1/2“ -1/8“ reducer and mount the pressure switch to the tank. Start by hand tightening the pressure switch into place followed by one half turn clockwise with a wrench.

WARNING: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE SWITCH, FINGER TIGHT + 1/4 TURN ONLY.

Step 7.) ASSEMBLE SPARE TIRE DELETE FEET & INSTALL THEM
For reference, the photo to the left shows the order of the pieces for the spare tire delete feet as well as fully assembled. ( 4 feet total)

The photos below shows how to install the spare tire delete feet to the bracket.

RELOCATE COMPRESSOR AIR FILTER

1. Place remote mounting bracket onto inlet air filter assembly and line up attachment holes.

2. Fasten the bracket to inlet air filter with 2 screws provided.

3. Screw1/2“NPT (F) x1/2“tube fitting onto inlet air filter, hand tightens. (No thread tape needed)

4. Locate the appropriate area where the remote inlet filter is to be installed. Keep in mind that the location should be dry and away from heat sources. The air inlet slots on the inlet air filter must be free from blockage and NOT facing upward.

5. Drill3 8“ mounting hole. Push the remote filter bracket pin into the hole.
   3/8“ NPT (M) x 1/26.) Screw “ tube fitting onto the compressor‘s air inlet port, tighten with a wrench.
   No thread tape is needed)

6. attached provided 1/2“ airline to the barbed tube fitting of the air inlet port of the compressor.

7. Route airline to the remote inlet air filter, measure and cut squarely to the appropriate length, and attach to the remote inlet air filter.

WARNING: FAILURE TO RELOCATE THE COMPRESSOR AIR FILTER OUT OF THE ELEMENTS COULD VOID YOUR WARRANTY. PLEASE DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.

SAFETY CABLE MOUNTING

Attach safety cables to the top of the bracket as seen in the photo below, once installed on the vehicle. Make sure the cables run through a solid mounting point under the vehicle

NOTE: THIS DIAGRAM IS FOR WIRING PURPOSES ONLY, YOUR ACTUAL COMPRESSOR CONNECTION CONFIGURATION MAY BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHICH COMPONENTS YOUR KIT CONTAINS.

WARNING: To ensure the life of your system, reading and following these instructions are recommended. Make sure to change filters and drain the moisture from the tank on a regular basis. Most factory horns are positively activated. If your horn system is negatively activated, then you will need to wire one of the leads from the valve to a direct 12v power source. Then wire the other lead to the negatively charged horn wire.

WIRING
Following the wiring instructions listed to the left in the diagram completely is crucial for the longevity of your system. One step that is extremely important in the wiring process is making sure the “trigger/switch positive” wire from the grey box pressure switch is tied into a key power-on” source, not a constant power on the source. This will make sure that your compressor never receives power unless the vehicle ignition is in the “on” position, also protecting your pressure

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

The only thing that needs to be done routinely on a bi-weekly basis is to drain your tank of any moisture that may have collected there over time. This can be done by turning the drain cock on the bottom of each tank clockwise until air and moisture begins to flow out. Following this step greatly increase the longevity of the kit.

! NOTE: DO NOT DRAIN MOISTURE FROM YOUR TANK USING THE SAFETY BLOW-OFF VALVE. THIS UNIT’S MAIN PURPOSE IS TO RELEASE PRESSURE IN CASE YOUR PRESSURE SWITCH HAPPENS TO FAIL.
