3. If copper sweat ttings are used anywhere in the ManaBloc water
supply line or water heater supply/return lines, these ttings must be
soldered, cooled and ushed of any ux residue before these lines are
connected to the ManaBloc.
Soldering creates a tremendous amount of heat, which could melt the
ManaBloc, and solder ux contains strong acids and may also contain
petroleum products.
These compounds can attack the plastic materials from which the
ManaBloc is made and cause crazing, cracking and failure of the
ManaBloc, resulting in leaks and water damage.
4. Ensure that the hot/cold supply lines are connected to the correct
supply inlet/outlet on the ManaBloc. Red valves designate hot ports;
blue valves designate cold ports.
5. Supply lines shall enter and/or exit the ManaBloc in a straight line. If
bending of the supply lines is required, the tubing must be anchored to
a framing member to isolate the bend stress from the ManaBloc or use
a directional tting.
6. After the supply tubing has been connected to the transition tting,
remove the plastic protective cap from the ManaBloc inlet/outlet part
and thread the swivel nut onto the threaded male adapter hand- tight
only. DO NOT CROSS-THREAD.
WARNING!
Do NOT electrically ground to this system.
CAUTION!
Swivel ttings must be ALIGNED CORRECTLY before
being attached to the ManaBloc. The piping material must
not be allowed to put stress on the ManaBloc, as leaking
and damage may result.
CAUTION!
Damage may result if over-tightened.
Hand-tighten only.
