Setup and Installation

The Maxline system is designed for straightforward installation without the need for glue, soldering, or crimping.

Installation Steps:

1. Plan Your Layout: Determine the optimal path for your air lines and the locations for air outlets. Consider the recommended maximum distance of 150 feet from the air compressor for optimal performance.
2. Cut Tubing: Use the provided cutter tool to cut the Maxline tubing to the desired lengths. Ensure cuts are clean and straight for proper fitting connection.
3. Connect Fittings: Insert the cut tubing into the compression-style nickel-plated brass fittings. Tighten the fittings securely. No special tools beyond standard wrenches are typically required for tightening.
4. Mount Tubing: The Maxline tubing can be mounted on wall surfaces using the provided pipe clips, installed within walls, or buried underground or in concrete. The tubing retains its shape once bent, allowing for custom routing.
5. Install Air Outlet Kits: Attach the air outlet kits at your designated locations. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent air leaks.
6. Connect to Air Compressor: Once the system is assembled, connect it to your air compressor.
7. Test for Leaks: Pressurize the system and carefully check all connections for air leaks using a soapy water solution. Tighten any leaking fittings.

The system is easily expandable with additional air outlet locations or can be modified later as your needs evolve.

Operating Instructions

The Maxline M7580 system is designed for continuous operation within its specified pressure limits.

• Maximum Pressure: Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of 175 psi (pounds per square inch). Operating above this pressure can compromise system integrity and safety.
• Air Compressor Compatibility: This system is suitable for air compressors up to 10 HP.
• Usage Area: The kit is designed to support compressed air needs for buildings up to 4000 sq. ft.
• Air Tool Connection: Connect your air tools to the air outlet kits as needed. Ensure quick-connect fittings are properly seated.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Maxline compressed air system.

• Leak Checks: Periodically check all fittings and connections for air leaks. Even small leaks can lead to significant pressure loss and increased compressor run time. Use soapy water to identify leaks.
• Tubing Inspection: Inspect the tubing for any signs of damage, kinks, or wear. While durable, physical damage can compromise its integrity.
• Fitting Inspection: Ensure all compression fittings remain tight. Re-tighten if any looseness is detected.
• Air Outlet Maintenance: Keep air outlets clean and free of debris.
