Black Tube Connection from Faucet

NOTE:

The tubing must be as SHORT and STRAIGHT as possible, making

a downward slope from the faucet to drain saddle to allow for proper

drainage.

Step 22

Measure the black tube from faucet to the black drain saddle and

make a straight cut with a sharp knife through tube. Do not use

scissors.

Step 23

Remove black plastic nut from drain saddle. Slip black tube through

black nut. Insert black tube into the opening in the drain saddle and

tighten the black nut securely.

NOTE:

This is a gravity fed line, if there is any bend in the tube, the rinse water will not flow into the

drain properly. Water will back up and come out the air gap hole in the side of the faucet base.

Red Tube Connection from Faucet

Step 24

Using the white plastic union (#16) in the parts bag, determine

where the red tubing from the faucet and the black tubing from

the RO membrane housing would join together comfortably. Using

a knife, cut the tubes leaving a straight cut on both tubes. Insert

both red tubes in either end of the white plastic union. Use a 5/8"

wrench to tighten both of the white plastic nuts securely.

Blue Tube Connection

Step 21

Position the tank in the desired location. Stand it upright or lay it

on its side (using the black plastic stand) (#31). Measure the blue

tube from the RO module over to the tank and cut to length. Insert

the blue tubing into either side of the ¼" x ¼" x ¼" tee connector

closest to the RO module.

21a The tubing must be fully inserted in the connector fitting; it is recom-

mended that you measure and mark the end of the tubing that you

are inserting in the fitting to assure that it is inserted as far as it will

go. The 1/4” tubing should be inserted about 5/8”. Push the tubing

through the small hole in the connector until you feel resistance. At

this point, the tubing is not fully inserted. Then push firmly until the

tubing is inserted as far as it will go.

NOTE:

To connect the 1/4" Blue Tube from the faucet, and the 1/4" Clear

Tube from the tank, see MP750SI Final Filter Installation. Do not

connect the faucet tubing until you get to that step.
