2. Pull on the fitted tubing to ensure it is secure. Tube

water line is depressurized. Push collet square towards

Cut to fit length of 1/4” PE tubing and remove any burrs
or sharp edges. Ensure that the outside diameter is free
from score marks. Tube ends should be square.

1. Firmly and fully insert the tubing end into the push-in
fitting up to the tube stop located approximately ½”
