Hydraulic System: Service Precautions

WARNING: COPPER TUBING SHOULD NOT BE USED IN A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM.

1. Obtain the recommended bulk 3/16-inch double-wall steel brake tubing and the correct metric tube nuts for 3/16-inch tubing.
2. Cut tubing to length required. Clean burrs after cutting. The correct length may be obtained by measuring the removed tube with a string and adding 1.2 mm (1/8 inch) for each flare.
3. Place tube nut onto tube into correct direction and flare the end of the tube with an SAE inverted flare or the metric ISO flare as required.
