TUBES AND COMPRESSION FITTINGS
Tubes with inverted nuts and compression fittings are designed for one-time assembly. Once assembled, they
must be replaced as a unit if any parts are found defective. Used parts may not seal properly when used with new
ones.
Used tube assemblies in good condition can be installed in their original location without leaking.
Assemble new tubes, compression sleeves, and inverted nuts as follows:
Slide inverted nut onto end of tube.
Slide compression sleeve onto end of tube.
Repeat previous two steps for other end of tube as required.
