Remove Protective Seals




1. Just prior to making the connection, remove the protective seals.

CAUTION: If for any reason you have to stop before making a connection, recap the tube, component or fitting.




2. Visually inspect the O-ring surface, the O-ring mating surface, the threads and the connection points. If a defective part is found, replace it. The O-ring must sit square against the tube bead. If necessary, slide the O-ring into proper position with clean hands.
