2.
Tighten the fl are nut as tightly as possible by hand.
3.
Using a wrench, hold the nut on the unit tubing.
4.
While fi rmly holding the nut on the unit tubing, use a torque wrench
to tighten the fl are nut according to the torque values in the Torque
Requirements table below. Loosen the fl aring nut slightly, then tighten
again. See below.

Torque from tightening the flare nut can snap off other parts
of valve. Tighten by hand not by wrench.
Figure 35
5.
While fi rmly holding the body of the valve, use a torque wrench to tighten
the fl are nut according to the correct torque values.
6.
Loosen the fl aring nut slightly, then tighten again.
7.
Repeat Steps 3 to 6 for the remaining pipe.
