Without removing the nut, insert the tube into the cou-
pling and push the end of the tube all the way in.
Tighten the nut with a hand until it stops moving. Put a
mark in this position.
Rotate the nut 450 degrees clockwise with a spanner,
keeping the coupling body with another spanner from
moving.
Reconnection method
Before loosening the nut, check its position. (This
position is used as a reference later.)
Remove the nut.
⇒
Check again that the front ferrule is mounted
at the proper position.
Check that no foreign matter is attached to the
body.
Insert the front ferrule until it attaches firmly to
the body and tighten the nut with a hand.
⇒
Take care not to scratch the body with the
end of the tube.
Tighten the nut with a spanner until it goes
slightly over the position before loosened (15 to
30 degrees).
