QUICK CONNECT FITTINGS
HOW TO MAKE QUICK CONNECT FITTINGS
CONNECTIONS: (Continued)
1.
INSERT TUBING
Push the tubing through the collet and o-rings until it bottoms out against the tube stop.
The collet holds the tube in place and the o-ring provides a leak resistant seal. If you need
to remove the tubing always re-cut before connecting tubing again. Scores on tubing can
cause failure.
2.
INSPECT AND TEST
Push and pull the tubing toward and away from the fitting to ensure that it has been
installed properly. Test and inspect the installation for any leaks.
3.
TUBE REMOVAL
Relieve pressure from the tubing and fitting. Push the collet flange against the fitting body
while pulling the tubing away from the fitting to release it.
CAUTION!!
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT TUBING AND QUICK CONNECTION FITTINGS
INSTALLATIONS ARE INSPECTED A MINIMUM OF ONCE PER YEAR AND PARTS REPLACED AS NEEDED.
