Dear Customer,

your Banks Power System,

please call our Technical Service

Hotline at (888) 839-2700

between 7:00 am and 5:00 pm

Thank you.

1. Before starting work, familiarize

yourself with the installation procedure

by reading all of the instructions.

2. The exploded view (Figure 1, pages

4-5) provides only general guidance.

Refer to each step and section diagram

in this manual for proper instruction.

3. Throughout this manual, the left

side of the vehicle refers to the

driver’s side, and the right side to

the passenger’s side.

4. Disconnect the negative (ground)

cable from the battery (or batteries, if

there are two) before beginning work.

5. Route and tie wires and hoses a

minimum of 6” away from exhaust

heat, moving parts and sharp edges.

Clearance of 8” or more is recommended

where possible.

6. When raising the vehicle, support

it on properly weight-rated safety

stands, ramps or a commercial hoist.

Follow the manufacturer’s safety

precautions. Take care to balance the

vehicle to prevent it from slipping or

falling. When using ramps, be sure the

front wheels are centered squarely on

the topsides. When raising the front

of the vehicle, put the transmission in

park (automatic) or reverse (manual),

set the parking brake, and block the

rear wheels. When raising the back

of the vehicle, be sure the vehicle is

on level ground and the front wheels

are blocked securely. Caution! Do not

use floor jacks to support the vehicle while

working under it. Do not raise the vehicle onto

concrete blocks, masonry or any other item not

intended specifically for this use.

7. During installation, keep the work

area clean. Do not allow anything to

be dropped into intake, exhaust, or

lubrication system components while

performing the installation, as foreign

objects will cause immediate engine

damage upon start-up.
