Information about installing O-ring fittings

A
NOTICE!
• Observe the specified tightening torques. A tightening torque that is too
high can damage the O-ring seat and cause leaks.
• Use two spanners when tightening or releasing a connection to prevent the
cables from twisting.
• Reusing O-rings is not permitted.
Proceed as illustrated (fig. c, page 7):
➤ Make sure that the O-ring (1) is sitting on the correct position on the fitting.
