Step 6 Cutting and flaring the pipes

1 Make sure that you have the required tools available:
pipe cutter, reamer, flaring tool, and pipe holder.
2 If you wish to shorten the pipes, cut them with a pipe
cutter, ensuring that the cut edge remains at a 90°
angle to the side of the pipe. Refer to the illustrations
below for examples of edges cut correctly and
incorrectly.
