¾" version: 

Divide the pre-assembled connector as can be seen in Figure 5: 

 

Figure 5: 

RWT connector parts of set1 (top: ¾" version, down: 1“ version) ready for 

mounting in the RWT 

Make sure the threaded pipe with external thread is 

firmly screwed

 into the 

threaded pipe with internal thread which also holds the filter cage on the other 
side. Then place one of the seal on the threaded pipe with external thread, as 
can be seen from the left side of Figure 5 

From inside the tank, push this left part of the connector together with the seal 
on the threaded pipe with external thread to the outer as far as possible. 

Add the second seal on the threaded pipe with external thread. 

Then tighten the connector with the counter nut on the threaded pipe, holding 
tight the inner part of the connector. 

Finally, screw the hose nozzle with cap nut on the threaded pipe. 

 

1" version: 

Divide the pre-assembled connector as can be seen in Figure 6.
