Put the assembled tubes, fittings and adapters into the build. First, slide the
compression ring and O-ring over the tube and push the tube into the distribution
plate fitting. Leave the compression rings loose for now.

STEP 9
Remove the compression ring and upper O-ring (loose) from an ALU-HDC
fitting and screw the inner part tightly into an ALU-AF 90° adapter. Slide the
compression ring and O-ring over the tube, push the tube firmly inside the fitting
until it stops and finally tighten the compression ring. Repeat this process for all
four enclosed tubes, installing the fitting and adapter on one end only.
STEP 7
CUTTING STRAIGHT TUBES FOR THE CPU BLOCK
If there is no vertical variance or if it is smaller than 5 mm you just need to
make
one cut
at the correct length to get the exact horizontal length of the
straight tube.
Use the miter tool to cut the straight tube.
1. Measure the horizontal distance from the Distribution Plate surface to the
center of the CPU block fitting.
2. Deduct from that length 16 mm (0.63”).
3. Cut the tube at that length.
We strongly advise that you cut in increments to prevent any
miscalculation that could result in cutting the tube too short.
Starting with a longer cut and trimming in short increments will
ensure that you have the correct fit.
The two prebent tubes can also be used as spares for straight tubes as the
straight part is long enough for the connection.

Use the tube reamer or sandpaper to chamfer the edges on all tubes for easier
installation into the fittings and to avoid damaging the o-ring.
