Using Quick-Connect Fittings
Cutting
Cut the tube square . It is essential that the outside diameter be free
of score marks and that burrs and sharp edges be removed before
inserting into fitting .
Connecting
Make certain to push the tubing completely into the connector until it
comes into contact with the internal tubing stop . The collet (gripper)
has stainless steel teeth which hold the tube firmly in position while
the O-ring provides a permanent leak proof seal .
Pull on the tube to check that it is secure . It is a good practice to test
the system prior to leaving the site and/or before use .
Disconnecting
To disconnect, ensure the system is depressurized before removing
the tube . Push in collet squarely against the face of the fitting . With
the collet held in this position, the tube can be removed . The fitting
can then be reused .
Step E -
Push the assembled tube into the threaded stem until it
stops . Slide the compression nut and plastic sleeve until
you can thread nut onto the faucet . Use a wrench to se-
curely tighten the compression nut while continuing to push
the tube into the faucet .
Step F -
Connect the other end of the tube into the right side of the
unit, next to the filter labeled “UF Membrane”
NOTICE
DO NOT overtighten nut.
