Cut a piece of Pneumatic Tubing (1A-151-01) and connect it to the Male Fitting (W68PLP-4-2) directly off the compressor
Connect a Push to Connect Union Tee (364PLP-4) to the other end of the Pneumatic Tubing (1A151-01)
Cut another piece of Pneumatic Tubing (1A-151-01) and connect it between the Union Tee (364PLP-4) and the Air Tank (AVT-PP-35)
Cut a piece of Pneumatic Tubing (1A-151-01) to go between the open slot on the Air Tank (AVTPP-35) and the inlet pressure port on the Regulator (R01-100RNEA)
Next cut a piece of Pneumatic Tubing (1A-151-01) to go between the outlet pressure port of the Regulator (R01-100RNEA) and the inlet pressure port (1) of the Electrical Valve
Cut two more pieces of Pneumatic Tubing (1A-151-01) to go from the push to connect fittings on the Electrical valve in ports 2 and 4 to the inlet and outlet ports on the actuator
Tubing should be cut in a straight line and not at an angle to ensure proper connection
Loosen the locknut on the relief valve
Jumper the bypass of the Pressure Switch so that the compressor runs continuously
When pressure gets to 125psi remove the jumper
Rotate cap until air escapes and the pressure remains in the 120-125psi range
Finger tighten the locknut
Dump air from system then refill with the jumper on the compressor
If the system stabilizes somewhere between 120-125psi range further tighten down the locknut, if it does not adjust the cap again and repeat the process
