Install Instructions

Disconnecting a Joint

Disconnection of the joint can only occur by using either the SharkBite

disassembly

clip or the SharkBite

disconnecting fork tool. By applying pressure to the release collar

with the clip or the fork tool, the grab ring teeth are splayed. This action releases the tube,

allowing it to be removed from the fitting.

1. Place the SharkBite

disassembly clip around the tube with the non-branded face

against the release collar. If using the SharkBite fork tool, place the forks around

the fitting assembly. The fork end with the SharkBite brand logo should be

positioned around the tube and the other end around the neck of the fitting.

2. Push the clip against the release collar and pull the tube with a twisting action to

release the tube. If using the SharkBite

fork tool, squeeze the tool with one

hand and pull the tube with a twisting action to release the tube.

3. Check the fitting and tube end for damage. The fitting should be free of damage

and foreign objects. The tubing should be free of damage and marks on the

outside diameter. If the tubing is damaged or marked, then cut and use a new

section of tubing.
