Measure and cut a
length of tubing to
connect the feed water
saddle valve to the left
inlet on the frame
assembly (indicated
by "TO FEED").
Connect the tubing to
the saddle valve using
t h e co mp r e s sio n
fittings provided. (See

Cut tubing so the end
is square to ensure a
leak free seal. Cut
tubing with a fresh,
sharp blade and a
slicing motion to
avoid crimping. See
