Make sure that you have the required tools available (pipe cutter, reamer,
flaring tool and pipe holder).
1
If you wish to shorten the pipes, cut it with a pipe cutter, taking care to
ensure that the cut edge remains at a 90° angle with the side of the pipe.
Refer to the illustrations below for examples of edges cut correctly and
incorrectly.
2
To prevent any gas from leaking out, remove all burrs at the cut edge of the
pipe, using a reamer.
3
Slide a flare nut on to the pipe and modify the flare.
4
Check that the flaring is correct, referring to the illustrations below for
examples of incorrect flaring.
5
Align the pipes and tighten the flare nuts first manually and then with
a torque wrench, applying the following torque.
