Make sure tubing is cut off square and burrs removed.

•

Chamfer outside of tubing with either a file or grinding wheel.

•

Insert tubing through two sides of clamping base using included adapter as guide for

proper length.

loose a grip will allow the tubing to push through.

adapter and hand tighten on to clamping base. (Do not use wrench to tighten) (See

Diagram 2)

•

Thread flaring screw into Hex yoke. Screw until tight and firm which will produce the

first flare. This will form a bell shape in tubing. (See Diagram 3)

•

Unthread screw until loose.

•

Unthread Hex yoke completely and remove adapter. Check for proper bell shape.

•

Replace Hex yoke and tighten to base.

•

Thread screw into hex yoke again until completely tight. This should complete the

double flare.
