3.2 Measuring and Cutting Tubing

1. Measure the required length of the 5/16 inch nylon tubing for your repair.

4. Operating Instructions (Attaching Connectors)

The following steps detail how to attach the Dorman 800-057 Quick Connector to the nylon tubing using the Dorman fuel line repair tool and a heat gun. These steps are generally applicable to various Dorman quick connectors.

4.1 Attaching Holding Plates and Connector to Tool

1. Attach the holding plates to the new nylon tubing using the tightening screws on the Dorman repair tool. Ensure the tubing is securely held.
2. Attach the desired quick connector (e.g., straight, 90-degree, 45-degree) to the appropriate adapter on the repair tool assembly.

4.2 ක්ලamping the Connector onto the Line

1. Position the repair tool so that the connector is aligned with the end of the nylon tubing.
2. Using a heat gun, gently warm the end of the nylon tubing while simultaneously squeezing the trigger of the repair tool. This action will clamp the connector onto the line.
3. Continue squeezing the trigger until the connector is fully seated and the barbs are securely engaged with the tubing.

4.3 Splicing into an Existing Line (Quick Union)

1. Ensure the existing fuel line is clean and free of debris.
2. Push the appropriate quick union onto the existing line until it is fully seated and secure.
