ONE-TOUCH JOINT

Removal and Installation


REMOVAL






1.Clean pipe joint and set a disconnector.
2.Slide disconnector in axial direction of pipe, and stretch garter spring using tapers of disconnector.
3.Slide disconnector further so that inner diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outer diameter of pipe (female-side) flare. Then pipe (male-side) can be pulled out and pipe connection can be disconnected.

INSTALLATION






1.Clean pipe joint, and then insert pipe (male-side) to pipe (female-side).
2.Press inserted pipe (male-side) further so that pipe (female-side) flare stretches garter spring.
3.When inner diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outer diameter of pipe (female-side) flare, garter spring gets over flare, fits between pipe (male-side) cage and pipe (female-side) flare, and fixes pipe joint.
NOTE:
When garter spring gets over flare and fits between pipe (male-side) cage and pipe (female-side) flare, it clicks.

CAUTION:
- Connecting point of pipe (female-side) is thin and easily deformed. Always insert pipe (male-side) in the axial direction straight and slowly. Be careful not to deform pipe (female-side).
- Insert pipe securely until it clicks.
- Always check that pipe joint is not disconnected by pulling pipe (male-side) by hands after pipe connection is complete.
