6. Assembly
6.7 Assembly of the lubrication lines us-
ing quick disconnect couplings
The SKF quick disconnect couplings are
available in designs for metal or plastic
pipes. With the design for metal tubes, there
is a further choice available between tube
versions with and without claw groove. The
claw groove securely fastens the tube in the
plug connectors, which prevents the metal
tube from slipping out of the SKF quick dis-
connect coupling. Both designs, for metal
and plastic pipes, have a locking claw. The
locking claw of the collet secures the tube
in the SKF quick disconnect coupling, which
prevents the tube from accidentally slipping
out, at least in the case of the design for
plastic tubes.
Cut the connecting tube (1) to the cor-
rect length with a tube cutter (see
Accessories).
In the following installation of the tube, a
noticeable resistance must be overcome
