Operating Instructions

Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this document including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.

1. This tool is used to create a double flared end on Copper, Aluminum, Soft Steel and Brass tubing.
2. You may flare tubing from 3/16″ to 1/2″ in diameter.
3. Straighten tubing as much as possible, and then be sure to make a clean cut straight across the tube to avoid a crooked flare. Deburr inner and outer edges. The tube cannot be crushed.
4. Back off the Flaring Cone and remove the pivoting wing nut. Slide Yoke over Flaring Bar.
5. Loosen the two wing nuts and insert the prepared tubing into the proper-size hole in the Flaring Bar. The end of the tube must extend above the top of the bar as much as the height of the Adapter Shoulder. For the two smallest Adapters, extend the tube as far as the shoulder on the largest adapter.
6. To ensure maximum leverage in clamping the tubing, first tighten the wing nut closest to the tubing being flared. Then tighten the second wing nut until the tubing is sufficiently clamped in the Flaring Bar.
7. Lightly oil the appropriate sized Adapter and insert it into the end of the tube, button end down.
8. Position the Flaring Cone over the Adapter.
9. Turn the Handle of the Yoke driving the Adapter into the end of the tube. The tube will flare. Continue flaring until the shoulder of the Adapter touches the Flaring Bar.
10. Back off the Yoke and remove the Adapter
11. Reposition Flaring Cone over tubing and screw the Yoke down again on the end of the tube until the tubing folds back on itself, forming a 45 degree double flare.
12. Loosen the Yoke, and the wing nuts. Remove the Yoke and Flaring Bar from the tube.
13. Clean and lightly lubricate the tool, and store it out of reach of children.
