Installation
Connect to Water Line (cont.)
6.Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the 1/4" drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp screws slowly and evenly so washer makes a watertight seal. DO NOT overtighten or you may crush the copper tubing.
7.Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the copper tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the outlet end squarely as far as it will go. Screw compression nut onto outlet end with adjustable wrench. DO NOT overtighten.
8.Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and turn ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear. Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe.
Connect to Refrigerator
1.Create a service loop (minimum diameter of 2 ft. [61.0 cm]) with the copper tubing. Avoid kinks when coiling the copper tubing.
2.Remove the plastic cap from water valve inlet port. Place a compression nut and sleeve on the copper tubing.
3.Insert the end of the copper tubing into the water valve inlet port. Shape tubing slightly so that the tubing feeds straight into the port to avoid kinks.
4.Slide the compression nut over the sleeve and screw into the water valve inlet port.
