Remove the Tubing from the Pump
We recommend mounting the MQL pump on the access panel
on the back of the machine's column. To route the tubing from
the spindle to the pump, you'll need to remove the tubing from
the pump side, and then reconnect it at the back of the
machine.
1. Unscrew the 3/8 in. push-to-connect fitting from the
pump block.
2. Pull the outer 3/8 in. tube and push-to-connect fitting
away from the pump block, exposing the 1/8 in. nylon
capillary tube.
