4.8 Laying suction and discharge line
INFO!
Proper layout of the suction and pressure lines directly after the
compressor is integral to the smooth running and vibration
behaviour of the system.
Procedure:
Push Union Nut (5) and Cut Ring (3) onto Pipe (2).
Hand	tighten	Union	Nut	(5)	until	locked.
Insert	Pipe	(2)	firmly	into	rebate	located	in	Socket	(6)	ensuring	the	pipe	fits	snugly.	Tighten	
Union	Nut	(5)	1	½	turns	using	a	spanner/wrench,	while	gripping	connecting	Socket	(6)	with	
another spanner/wrench. This should cause the Cutting Edge (1) of Cut Ring (3) to Cut into 
Pipe (2) resulting in a visible collar.
