Removing the pipe from the old fitting
Carefully bend back the tags on the old fitting as shown in FIG 1. This will make the pipe loose enough to be pulled out.
The pipe should be pulled straight out of the fitting as shown in FIG 2 and not levered from side to side as this may damage the sealing surface.
Inserting the Pipe into the new fitting
Replace the old O ring with the new one supplied and lubricate it a little.
Push the pipe squarely and firmly into the new fitting as shown in FIG 1. It may help to twist the pipe slightly whilst keeping it perpendicular to the fitting, but do not lever it from side to side.
Push down until the O ring has fully entered the fitting and there is no gap between the two flanges as shown in FIG 2
The clip supplied can now be fitted and tightened. FIG 3
If the above guidelines are not followed damage may occur to the O ring or sealing surface; it is therefore recommended that all joints be tested prior to fitting the heater matrix to the vehicle. |
