IV. Quick Connect / Compression Fitting Installation Instruction
Note: This systems is equipped with quick connect ttings. These user-friendly ttings provide
superior performance and leak-free seal if installed correctly.
2. Quick Connect Tubing Removal
• Release the Tubing (See Diagram B-4)
- Relieve pressure from the tubing and
tting. Push the collet ange against the
tting body while pulling the tubing away
from the tting to release it.
IMPORTANT! Should a leak occur at a tting, the cause is generally defectively cut tubing. To x a leak,
relieve pressure, release tubing, cut o at least 1/4” from the end (square cut), reattach the tubing and
conrm the connection is leak free. Each time a new connection is made, it is advisable to cut off 1/4”
from the end of the tubing using these ttings.
1. Quick Connect Tubing Installation
• Inspect Tubing (See Diagram C-1) - The
system comes with pre-cut tubing that is
cut cleanly and squarely to ensure proper
connection. Please ensure that the tube
has a smooth outside diameter without
any burrs, chamfers or score marks prior
to inserting it into the tting. Tubing that
has not been cut properly can cause drips
and leaks
• Insert Tubing (See Diagram C-2) - 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.
• Push and pull the tubing toward and away
from the tting to ensure that is installed
properly. (See Diagram C-3)
