Hydraulic Hose and Tube Installation (O--Ring Face Seal Fitting)
1.
tube and the fitting are free of burrs, nicks, scratches or
any foreign material.
Make sure threads and sealing surfaces of the hose/

rect Flats From Wrench Resistance (F.F.W.R.). The

2.
As a preventative measure against leakage, it is rec-
ommended that the face seal O--ring be replaced any
time the connection is opened. Make sure the O--ring is
installedandproperlyseatedinthefittinggroove.Lightly
lubricate the O--ring with clean hydraulic oil.

Thread the swivel nut onto the fitting by hand. While
holding the hose/tube with a wrench, use a torque
wrench to tighten the swivel nut to the recommended
installation torque shown in Figure 5. This tightening
process will require the use of an offset wrench (e.g.
crowfoot wrench). Use of an offset wrench will affect
torque wrench calibration due to the effective length
change of the torque wrench. Tightening torque when
usingatorquewrenchwithanoffsetwrenchwillbelower
than the listed installation torque (see Using a Torque
Wrench with an Offset Wrench in the Torque Specifica-
tions section of Chapter 2 -- Product Records and Main-
tenance).

If a torque wrench is not available or if space at the
swivel nut prevents use of a torque wrench, an alternate
method of assembly is the Flats From Wrench Resist-
ance (F.F.W.R.) method (Fig. 2).
