A Note on Fittings
Your RO system has been equipped with quality push on fittings throughout. Check that all fittings are
snug, as they may have loosened in transit.
Completing and securing a push-on connection is simple. First, the tubing should be cut square and
any burrs or rough edges removed. Insert the tube firmly and push until the tube end contacts the
stop. Gently tug the tube backwards to assure a secure connection. To disconnect, pull the tube while
pushing in the collet ring. Fittings may be reconnected over and over again, if necessary. See figure 2
below.
Step 5. Installing the Filter Cartridge and Membrane (s)
1. Remove the filter housing bowl by turning counter-clockwise with the housing wrench supplied.
Remove all protective wrapping from the 5-micron filter cartridge. Insert the 5-micron white
sediment filter in the housing and reassemble. The housing is seated with o-rings – DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN – 1/4 turn or less after hand tight is usually sufficient. Purge any air out of the filter
bowl prior to starting the system by pushing the red button on top of the filter housing.
Skip (2.) below if the factory has pre-loaded your membrane elements.
