Manual
Air Recovery System The
EAS system and MARS use a type of connector that forms a seal around the
outside diameter of the air line. It is extremely important to
make sure both the factory air lines and the MARS air lines are not pinched
or deformed at their ends. Since the connectors seal around the outside
of the air lines, any imperfection at the seal presents a perfect opportunity
for a leak. If any trimming must be done to any air line,
be sure to use a razor, or other suitable cutting utensil, to cut the
line at a 90° angle and free of any burrs. The Manual Air Recovery System uses a connector on the fill valve assembly that converts the tube diameter from 6mm to ¼ inch. The MARS air lines are 6mm and the fill valve connection is ¼ inch. The converting connector is labeled appropriately on each end of the release collar. Leaks will develop if the MARS air line is not connected to the 6mm side of the converting connector! Another situation to avoid is an extreme angle at the point of connection. If an air line is not at a 90° angle at the connector, there is a greater chance for a leak. Stress at the point of connection will cause the air lines to deform and not seal properly. Make sure the air lines are secured and located away from hot and moving parts. The air lines should be immobilized as much as possible to prevent any unwanted movement or stress. |
