114.When the JIC hoses are routed, follow the following pro-
cedure for hooking up and tightening.
a.Inspect for possible contamination or damage from
shipping or handling. Sealing surface should be
smooth. Annular tool marks of (100uin) concentric with
thread permissible.
b.Lubricate the threads and the entire surface of the cone
with hydraulic fluid or a light lubricant.
c.Align mating components for hand connection and turn
flare nut until sealing surfaces make full contact.
d.Torque nut to, See “Torque Values Chart” on page 27.
If a wrench pad is provided next to nut, place a second
wrench on pad to prevent flare from rotating while
being torqued.
e.
When torquing nut onto a straight flared fitting, it may be
necessary to also place a wrench on the flared fitting
wrench pad to prevent it from turning during assembly.
115.Alternate Assembly Method for JIC.
a.
If torqued method not possible, then proceed to the
steps below.
b.Lightly wrench tighten the nut until there is firm
resistance.
c. Place a wrench on wrench pad next to nut as near
the 6 0’clock position as possible.
d.Place second wrench on nut as near the 3 o’clock
position as possible.
e.Turn nut clockwise to no less than the 4 o’clock
position and no more than the 6 o’clock position.
Required rotation generally decreases as size
increases.
