Air Fittings - Monaco Cayman 2005 Owner's Manual

Push-in fittings, used to connect air hoses between pneumat-
ic operated items, are designed for quick and easy mainte-
nance and repair. Sizes and types of fittings vary for different
applications. Threaded fittings adapt the push-in fittings to con-
nect pneumatically operated items. Main parts include the
release ring, locking ring, solid brass body and special rubber
compound O-ring.
Damaged hoses can be
repaired by splicing.
To Disconnect Hose:
• Push hose into fitting.
• Push release ring down against locking ring portion of the fitting
body.
• While holding the release ring down, pull hose away from fitting.
To Connect Hose:
• Push hose into fitting through the release ring and the O-ring, using a
slight twisting motion to seat firmly against the internal tube stop.
• Pull hose away from fitting to expand and set inner seal. Ensure
hose is properly retained in fitting.
NOTE:
When putting air hose back into fitting, be sure that
hose is cut as squarely as possible so that the hose will
evenly seal in the fitting. The cavity of the positive tubing
stop provides support to prevent leakage.
WARNING:
Do not remove air hoses from fittings while system is
pressurized. Serious personal injury may occur.
