Installation Procedure
STEP 01
Pipe Cutting & Chamfering
- Make sure to use a “Rotary Cutter” or “Pipe cutter” exclusively for ez products.
- After cutting pipe, please make sure both ends of the pipe are chamfered to prevent any damage to the O-ring
- Don’t skip the chamfering.
- If you use a pipe without chamfering, the O-ring of the fitting will be damaged, causing a leak.
Rotary Cutter
- Rotary Cutter for
- You can rent it at the retail store
Pipe Cutter
- A hand Pipe Cutter
- It is used to cut pipes where no power is supplied.
ez Ruler
“ez Cap” type Ruler
STEP 02
Line Marking
- Use the ez marking tool (ez Ruler, ez Cap type ruler) to indicate the insertion depth on the pipe.
- To prevent leakage due to short insertion depth, make sure to do line marking before insertion
- Without “line marking”, it cannot be checked whether the pipe is properly inserted after the installation is completed.
STEP 02
Line Marking
- Use the ez marking tool (ez Ruler, ez Cap type ruler) to indicate the insertion depth on the pipe.
- To prevent leakage due to short insertion depth, make sure to do line marking before insertion
- Without “line marking”, it cannot be checked whether the pipe is properly inserted after the installation is completed.
ez Ruler
“ez Cap” type Ruler
STEP 03
Installation
- After remove the dust cap on the , please check for any dust inside and remove the dust if any.
- Keep horizontal with the and then insert it to the line mark
- If insertion is not smooth, apply either vegetable detergent or “ez lubricant“ to the pipe before inserting
- Please contact ez Joint retail store for ‘EZ lubricant’
- ‘Short-pipe insert’, which is not inserted until ‘line marking’, may cause leakage
STEP 04
Installation Complete
- Make sure the pipe is completely inserted up to the “line marking”
- Be careful not to insert the pipe obliquely
How to Remove
STEP 01
Insert the ez Clip
EPlace the ez-Clip on the pipe and insert the ez-Clip blade so that the Jaw-holder can be pressed.
STEP 02
Remove the pipe
EPress the ez Clip to remove the pipe
