Compression Fittings
The recommended method of using compression fitting is as follows:-
IMPORTANT The above method is for advice only.
CAUTION Over tightening can cause the compression fittings to fail.
If you are applying heat around any compression fitting it is recommended that the
pipe is kept cool with a wet rag. This ensures that the pipe does not become soft. If
the pipe gets soft the olive cannot compress onto the pipe.
Airedale will not be held responsible for any water leaks by compression fitting
misuse.
Apply small amount of
oil to top of olive.
Nip nut slightly to
secure olive onto pipe.
Undo and remove pipe
from fitting.
Apply small amount of
pipe sealant to leading
edge of olive that will be
inserted into fitting.
Insert into fitting
(remove any excess
sealant with a cloth).
Mark two alignment marks on
fitting.
If it leaks you can tighten a
further 90 degree only.
If it a leak still occurs replace
olive.
Tighten with spanner,
maximum 270 degree.
