How to use push-to-connect fittings
Some replacement procedures in the gas connect consoles require you to use push-to-connect
fittings. This procedure explains how to use push-to-connect fittings without causing damage to the
tubing or fitting.
Replace any tubing that is damaged. If you reuse damaged tubing, it can
result in leaks.
Used tubing can have an indentation on the end that can cause leaks. To
prevent leaks, trim the tubing to remove the indentation.
Push-to-Connect
• To connect, push the tube into the fitting until it stops. Pull on the tube lightly to make sure that the connection
is tight.
• To release, push the fitting collet and tube toward the fitting. Then, continue to push the fitting collet toward the
fitting, and pull the tube away from the fitting.
