Connect (Spring Lock Coupler)
- Check for damaged garter spring. If garter spring is damaged, remove using small hooked wire and replace spring. Wipe end of lines using clean cloth. Place new "O" rings onto tube. Lubricate ends of lines with clean refrigerant oil.
- Push fitting together using a slight twisting motion. Ensure garter spring is over flared end of female fitting. Attempt to pull lines apart to ensure coupler is fully engaged. Install locking clip (if equipped).
