8.5 Nozzle Tubes And Fittings

Poor seals are usually caused by:
• Missing O-rings or gaskets
• Damaged or incorrectly seated O-rings
• Dry or deformed O-rings or gaskets
• Foreign materials
Therefore, in case of leaks; DO NOT overtighten any fittings (Fig. 12).
Disassemble, check the condition and position of the O-ring or gasket,
clean, lubricate and then reassemble. For radial seals (O-ring) (Fig.12)
only hand tighten the fittings. Do not use pliers or wrenches.
The O-rings need to be lubricated ALL THE WAY AROUND before fitting
on to the nozzle tube.
®
HARDI recommends using a veg-
etable based oil to prolong the life of
the O-ring.
