Installing the Seal Housing

c Sit the seal housing on top of the shallow clamshell half.

c Without using sharp, jagged tools such as pliers (usually your

hands are the best tool for this job), gently bend the seal housing
tube so that it lines up with the bulk head fitting hole as shown in
Figure 10.

c Mark the tube approximately 8mm [5/16”] out from the end of the

hole, and cut with an automotive brake line tubing cutter.
