•Assembly Instructions 1. Cut tubing to desired length. 2. Slide nut and then sleeve on tube. Thread end of nut “A” and small end of sleeve “B” must face toward fitting. 3. Insert tubing into fitting body. Be sure tubing is bottomed on fitting shoulder. 4. Lubricate threads and assemble nut to fitting body. 5. Tighten with wrench to the “ring grip” point. a. Ring Grip is the point when the cutting edge of the sleeve grips the tube. This is determined by turning tube slowly but firmly by hand while tightening the nut with a wrench until tube can no longer be turned by hand and a sharp increase in torque is noticed.
