REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove threaded sleeve on end of Kwik-Coupler. A vise may
be necessary to remove old straight sleeve - the 90° has
a screw driver slot on back for removal.
2. Discard old stem and spring.
3. Use a wire brush to clean sealant residue from disassembled
parts.
4. Insert new stem and spring.
5. Apply one bead of thread sealant completely around the
thread. Do not apply an excessive amount of sealant - this
may damage o-ring seal and cause leakage. Assemble to
length at right (Fig. 1 & 2). For 90° style, engage threads until
the bottom of the slot is even with the back of the coupler
(Fig. 3).
6. Allow sealant to cure at least 30 minutes. The Kwik Coupler is
now ready to use.
