  2. Pass the fitting through the hole, then tighten the nut to hold it against the bulkhead.
  3. Cut each tube square, clean and free of cracks, then push it fully into the fitting with moderate force.
  4. Pull lightly on the tube to check that it holds.
  5. To remove it, release the pressure first, push the collet towards the fitting body and pull the tube out.
