A. Route the tubing to the HPU according to your preference, and trim the excess using a razor tubing cutter. All
cuts made in the tubing must be as straight as possible to ensure that the compression fittings do not leak.
B. While taking note of their orientation, remove the blue and black dust caps from the hydraulic compression
fittings on the HPU.
C. Disassemble both of the compression fittings by removing their nuts and ferrules. With both the blue and
black hydraulic tubing cut to length, feed each of them through a compression fitting nut as well as a
compression fitting ferrule. ((SSeeee IImmaaggee ##55))
INSTALLATION (HPU FITTINGS):
STEP 1 Route the Hydraulic Tubing to the HPU according to your preference and trim the excess
using a razor tubing cutter. All cuts made in the Hydraulic Tubing must be perfectly straight
to ensure the Compression Fittings do not leak.
STEP 2 Remove the BLUE and BLACK dust caps from the Compression Fittings on the HPU,
taking note of their orientation.
STEP 3 Disassemble both of the Compression Fittings by removing their Nuts and Ferrules. With
both the BLUE and BLACK Hydraulic Tubing cut to length, feed each of them through a
Compression Fitting Nut as well as a Compression Fitting Ferrule. FIG 5
IMPORTANT: The Hydraulic Tubing must pass through the Ferrule far enough so there is
approximately a 1/2” Length of Tubing exposed. FIG 5
STEP 4 Tighten both Compression Fitting Nuts with a 9/16” Wrench.
WARNING: The Nuts must be tightened down far enough so NONE of the Compression Fittings’
threads are visible. Otherwise, hydraulic failure may occur. FIG 3

D. Insert the blue tubing into the compression fitting labeled UP (blue dust cap), and the black tubing into the
fitting labeled DN (black dust cap). While holding one length of tubing fully inserted into its respective
compression fitting base, begin threading the compression fitting nut onto the base. Repeat this step for the
remaining length of hydraulic tubing.
E. Tighten both compression fitting nuts with a 9/16” wrench while simultaneously holding their respective bases
with a 1/2" wrench. ((SSeeee IImmaaggee ##66))
