Installing Your Train Horn Kit Planning Your Installation This is • • • • • • • • • • the most important step in your installation. Plan out the location of each component before starting your installation. Make sure you have enough air line and wire to install the system before beginning the installation. Make sure mounting locations are secure and void of debris. Try to keep the supply wire to the compressor as short as possible.
III. Installing Your Air Tank Locate a secure area close to your air compressor to mount your air tank. The leader hose of the compressor should be able to reach an available port on the air tank with some slack. 1. Position the tank in its desired location and secure it using standard mounting hardware. IV. Installing Your Air Tubing & Air Valve Before cutting any air tubing make sure to double check your measurements.
V. Wiring Your Valve & Air Compressor Your train horn kit will use two completely independent circuits. One circuit will connect your horn trigger (pushbutton intermittent switch, or toggled factory button) to your electric solenoid valve. The other circuit will connect your accessory trigger (ignition wire, accessory wire) to your air source kit.
Maintenance & Tips Disconnect electrical components and drain your air system before performing maintenance. General Air Horn System Maintenance • • • • Check your air horns for debris when appropriate and at least once a month and clean when necessary. Drain your air system at least once a month to remove any condensation buildup on the inside of your air tank. Make sure your air compressor is clean and free from debris at all times. Periodically change your two stage air filter on your compressor.
