1. Lubricate the O-ring by coating it with a light oil or
petroleum. Install the O-ring in the groove adjacent
to the metal backup washer which is assembled at the
extreme end of the groove
(4)
.
2. Install the fitting into the SAE straight thread boss until
the metal backup washer contacts the face of the boss
