bottoms out in the stop.
2. Place compression nut and
sleeve onto the PEX tube.
3. If larger than 3/8 in. OD, insert
stainless steel tube insert.

sealant be sure the threads are
clean of any debris and that
sealant is also free of any metal
debris. DO NOT USE a putty,
gasket material or thread
seal tape.
6. If using a thread sealant, apply a thin even coat to the male compression threads
only taking care not to get thread sealant on the compression ring or sealing
surface. IMPORTANT: Excessive thread sealant may cause joint to fail.
7. Hand tighten the compression nut onto the stop as far as it will allow.
8. Using hand tools, tighten 1-1/2 to 2 turns from the hand tight position. Note: Make
sure that the riser remains seated and square to the stop. If the riser is not square
to the stop, this could affect the ability to get a good connection. CAUTION: DO NOT
