NOTE: The saddle valve clamps onto soft or hard tubing or pipe
from 3/8" to 1-5/16" diameter. It will make its own hole in cop-
per tubing, but not in iron or brass. For brass or iron pipe, drill a
5/32" hole in the pipe before mounting the saddle valve.

Risk of electric shock. If possible, use a hand or
cordless drill when drilling into the water pipe. If using an electric
drill, be sure that the drill, cord and outlet are all properly grounded.
Be sure the water supply to the cold water line is turned off.
NOTE: Do not turn the handle before installing or while installing
the saddle valve. To prevent damage to the piercing needle, make
sure that piercing needle does not project beyond the rubber gasket.
