Routing the copper tubing
Refer to the diagram on the side
for the following steps.
1.
Uncoil the necessary length of
copper tubing and straighten
it, then route the end of the
tubing through the access
hole you drilled to the location
you have chosen to install the
shut-off valve. Straighten only
enough of the copper tubing
to reach this location. Leave
the rest coiled near the
access hole.
2.
At this time, make sure that
you have been supplied with
enough tubing so that when
you are finished connecting the
water line, you will have enough
coiled behind the refrigerator to
easily move it forward far enough
to clean behind it. Also make
sure that the coils are large
enough so that when the unit is
pulled forward, the winding will
not stretch too far and kink.
5. Use a hammer and a center
punch, and mark the location of
the hole for the shut-off valve. If
you are marking copper tubing,
do not strike the punch hard
enough to bend it.
6. Install a ¼" bit in the drill, and
carefully drill an access hole
through just the front side (not
through both sides) of the cold
water pipe.
3. Turn off the cold water supply
going to the water pipe where
you will be installing the shut-off
valve.
7. Check the hole and make sure
that you have drilled completely
through one side of the pipe. The
edges of the hole should be
smooth and round. If necessary,
use a small ¾-round file to
remove any rough edges from
inside the hole, and any burrs
from around the top of the hole.
4. Open a cold water tap that is
connected to the selected water
pipe and bleed off the water
pressure. Leave the tap open
until after you complete the water
line hook up.
