TUBE FITTING ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 STEP 4
ASSEMBLY:
Step 1 Cut tube end square and clean
Step 2 Loosen nut on fitting three turns.
Step 3 Insert tube into fitting until it bottoms. Loosen nut completely and
remove tube with attached parts from body. Check to ensure that the
“O”-ring is seated onto the tube under the spacer (and not pinched
into the body). Insert tube with attached parts into the body and
tighten nut finger tight.
DISASSEMBLY:
Step 4 To remove tubing in order to reuse the fitting assembly, cut tubing
close to nut, push tubing through nut, grab ring and spacer.
Always allow the tube to enter and exit
straight from the tube fitting for a
minimum of one inch prior to starting a
bend. If the tube is immediately bent
from the tube fitting then leaks result due
to unnatural O-ring side compression.
