How to Use “Push In” Connectors
This product is equipped with user-friendly “Push In” connectors. Proper use of the connectors is shown in the diagrams.
It is most important that the tubing selected for use with the connectors be of high quality, exact size and roundness,
and with no surgace nicks or scratches. If it is necessary to cut the tubing, use a plastic tubing cutter or sharp razor
knife. Make a clean square cut. Should a leak occur at a Push In connector, the cause is usually defective tubing.
To fix: 1. Relieve pressure.
2. Release tubing.
3. Cut off at least 1/4” from end.
4. Reattach tubing.
5. Confirm connection is leak-free.
