Remove protective caps from copper tube ends.
Position tube end downward, cut the tube to the requested length
and remove the burrs with a reamer.
Do not leave system open to atmosphere any longer than minimum
required for installation.
Oil in the compressor is extremely susceptible to moisture
absorption.
Always keep ends of tubing sealed during installation.
The maximum residual quantity of oil used for tubing is 40 mg/10 m.
Remove flare nuts from the unit connections and place them on the
tube end.
Flare the tube with the flaring tool.
