proper seal needed. The inside of braided plumbing lines may vary and therefore may look differently

from this example. Don't let this confuse you. If the plumbing line is braided, DO NOT attempt to install

the feed water needed piercing valve to it. If you have this kind of plumbing there is usually a piece of

copper pipe that is located directly under your kitchen sink's faucet assembly which you can mount to

5.2 Installing the Needle Piecing Saddle Clamp to the cold water line.

Rotate the horizontal turning bar of the needle piercing valve to the left (counter clockwise) as you

do not want to pierce your cold water line at this stage. Make sure the needle is retracted all the way.

Next, clamp your cold water line TIGHTLY using the needle piercing saddle clamp which can be found

in your Large Parts Bag. (Fig. 7) You will need a Phillips screwdriver and small pair or pliers for this step.

Next, take the 2-4 Inch piece of red tube from the Small Parts Bag and insert it into the elbow on the

"INLET" (left) side of the pre-filters (Fig. 8 - next page), then take the manual shut off valve, also found

in the Small Parts Bag, and attach it to the other end of the red tube (Fig. 8 - next page).

To more easily insert the tubing into the various fittings of your system it

is helpful to remove the blue "C" clip from around the collet and then in-

sert the tubing. After the tubing has been inserted into place, pull lightly

on the tubing in order to make room for the blue "C" clip and then place

the blue "C" clip back into its original position. The blue "C" clip holds the

collet in its proper position while the system is in operation.

5.4 Piercing the cold water line

Ensuring the needle piecing saddle clamp is firmly in place, screw down the needle of the saddle

clamp using the horizontal bar on top of the clamp.

Note: You will feel resistance when the needle is piercing the cold water line, so pay attention to the

amount of resistance experienced. This resistance will stop when you have successfully pierced the

cold water line. CAUTION: Do not screw in the needle valve to its maximum depth as you then risk

piercing the opposite side of your cold water line.

After the cold water line has been pierced, turn the horizontal bar on the top of the clamp counter

clockwise (left) until it becomes snug. This retracts the piercing needle creating a path for feed water

to flow into the red tubing – supplying your system with its feed water.

PLEASE NOTE: Do not turn your home's emergency cold water shut off back to its ON position yet!
