Assembly Instructions:
- Inspect the mating threads for debris or damage. Remove any old fluoropolymer tape or sealant on previously used threads.
If threads are damaged, use a new adapter before proceeding. - Apply 2 to 3 wraps of fluoropolymer tape or an NSF/FDA approved silicone sealant.
Do not use Plumbers Putty or Pipe Dope. These chemically react with plastic materials and could cause a failure. - Align ball valve onto mating thread to ensure cross threading does not occur.
- Screw ball valve onto mating thread 3 to 5 turns. Do not over-tighten
- Pressurize the system and check for leaks.
