INSTALLATION, AIR TUBE

NOTE

Perform steps 1 through 3 if end of tube has been cut off during

removal or new tubing will be installed.

When installing new tubing, length of tubing shall be trimmed so

there is a small amount of looseness when both ends are connected to

fittings and tubing is not so short it has to be pulled tight.

Ensure

ends of tube are cut reasonably square.
