8. Insert tubing into the pump assembly.
a. Extend the new tube to its respective pump and thread the end into the hole in the
pump arm.
b. Push the thumb tab to the extreme left, as before, and push the tube through until
the plastic cuff is flush against the pump arm.
c. Release the pump arm.
NOTE:
If you encounter difficulty in threading the tubing through the pump housing, lift the

pump housing to rotate slightly and relieve the interference.
