* Fewer or more expansions may be necessary, as influ-
enced by weather and technique.
5. Continue until the tubing is flush with the shoulder
of the expander head. Then expand 1 to 4 more
times, depending on the room temperature (the
warmer the temperature, the more expansions
are necessary).
6. Remove the tubing when the segments are
contracted and release the trigger. To avoid over-
expanding the tubing, do not keep tool in the
expanded position with tubing in place.
7. Wipe excess grease from inside tubing.
8. Slide the tubing over the fitting until it is flush with
the fitting shoulder. Connection may be tight. If
unable to slide tubing over the fitting, remove from
fitting and expand one additional time.
9. Tubing should fit tight against the fitting shoulder. If
more than 1/16" gap between tubing and shoulder,
cut 2" off the end of the tubing and restart proce-
dure with a new ProPEX
