Additional

To connect to a water line, install between a pair of 3/8" female-male compression fittings. 5-6 wraps of Teflon tape can be used if necessary to avoid leaks.

To connect tubing, first make sure that the tube is cut flat, and not at an angle. Push the tube into the fitting past the o-ring as far as it will go, approx. three-quarters of an inch.

To disconnect, push the collet into the fitting and hold it down as you pull out the tube.

To open, turn the lever parallel to the tube. To close, turn the lever perpendicular to the tube.
