Check for any hidden wiring or cables and adjust the location for the holes as needed. Then, temporarily set the compressor aside. 3. Drill the four 1/2″ diameter holes through the truck bed and any reinforcing materials. 4. Set the compressor back in place, and align the foot holes with the pre-drilled holes. Use four 1/2″ diameter, bolts, washers and lock washers (all not included) to secure the compressor in place.

With assistance, move the compressor to the truck bed location and mark the floor of the truck
bed through the holes in the compressor’s feet. Check for any hidden wiring or cables and
adjust the location for the holes as needed. Then, temporarily set the compressor aside.
3.
Drill the four 1/2″ diameter holes through the truck bed and any reinforcing materials.
4.
Set the compressor back in place, and align the foot holes with the pre-drilled holes. Use four 1/2″
diameter, bolts, washers and lock washers (all not included) to secure the compressor in place.
