10. Connect the 3/8" Poly Tubing (9) to
the Drinking Water Fitting (10) and cut the
Poly Tubing (9) to proper length to remove
any unnecessary loops or low spots as
shown in figure 5A. Save excess Poly
Tubing (9) for water filtration connection.
IMPORTANT: When using push fittings,
ensure the ends of the tubing are cut
square and free of burrs or damage within
1" of the end of the tube. DO NOT use
any forms of sealing compounds or tools
to remove the tubing or modify the fitting
in any way, as this can damage the fitting
and result in leaks. Proper installation
and removal of tubing with push fittings is
outlined in figure 5B. Damage in this area
can cause leaks.
