• CAUTION: The maximum rated pressure is stamped on the connector
body. Before using, verify that this pressure rating is within your working
pressures.
• WARNING: Connect test piece and tug on the connector to assure proper
engagement and gripping before introduction of pressurized media.
• DO NOT force connector onto test part when connecting. The split collet
design should easily mate with test piece. Forcing the connector will result
in poor sealing and possible leakage.
• DO NOT turn or rotate connector after the collets have gripped the test
piece. Damage to test piece and the connector’s internal parts may result.
