 High quality, heavy duty, corrosion resistant PVC float valves.

CAUTION: To insure proper assembly, tubing MUST be fully inserted into the fitting body to the tube stop.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR JACO TUBE FITTINGS

1
. Cut the tubing end squarely and remove the internal and external burrs.

2. Insert the tubing through the back of the nut all the way through the nut assembly to the tube stop in the fitting body (see illustration). If the tubing does not enter the nut easily, loosen the nut one turn and then insert the tubing all the way to the tube stop in the fitting body.

3. Turn the nut hand tight.

4. Wrench tighten the nut 1-1/2 to 2 turns.

5. All nuts must be re-tightened when the system reaches projected operating temperature.

NOTE: It is not necessary to disassemble this fitting for application. Merely insert tubing to stop and tighten seal.

NOTE: Squeaking sound when tightening nut is normal. For pipe threaded connections, Teflon Tape* must be used.
