Tighten 90° elbow fitting to valve
Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the
3/4" (19 mm) fitting of the 90° elbow up to the valve and hand
tighten it to avoid cross-threading. Hand tighten until the coupling
is tight.
Using pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An additional
1/4 to 1/2 turn may be required to seal the rubber gasket. Route
fill hose out the rear left side of unit.
NOTES:
Do not use tape with compression fittings.
