4. Use the compression fitting supplied with this gas
control. Slip the fitting over the tubing and slide out of the
way.
NOTE: When replacing a gas control, cut off old compres-
sion fitting and replace with the new compression fitting
provided on the gas control. Never use the old compres-
sion fitting because it may not provide a gas-tight seal.
5. Push tubing into the pilot gas tapping on the outlet end
of the control until it bottoms. While holding tubing all the
way in, slide compression fitting into place, engage threads
and turn until finger tight. Then tighten one more turn with
wrench. Do not overtighten. Refer to Figs. 5 and 6.
6. Connect other end of tubing to pilot burner according
to pilot burner manufacturer instructions.
