Question About the 4 - Macroline

[mpire123]

I will be receiving my 4 tomorrow. The only thing I need to confirm is if the 4 comes with the straight fitting as well as the 90 degree elbow fitting. I know this is the easiest question in the world but since I don't have the 4 in front of me I trust you guys to give me the correct answer. TIA

yes

you get the fitting that's already in the minireg, and then a 90 degree for your air source.

sry to sound like an idiot im geting the a4 and i ave never used a macroline before ive always used the steel braided line for my cocker so just curious of how the connections work on a macro line it doesnt seem like u screw it in like on the other

[mpire123]

All you do is screw the 90* fitting into your bottom line. Then cut the macroline to the length you need and slip it into the coupling. Make sure you cut the line straight and not at an angle so it sits flush inside the fittings. All the instructions are in the manual BTW.

Also, make sure when you cut then length of the macroline that you dont cut it only the distance to the hole on both fittings. You need to give it a half inch extra to make sure it has a tight fit. The macroline has to slide a good centimeter or more into the mouth of the fittings or you will have leaks.

thx for the info its wierd how u would just slide the line in and it doesnt leak

Inside the fittings, there is a ring with teach. Under pressure, the line is forced out into these teeth, giving you a great seal. Confused me the first time I saw it too. Ain't technology wonderful?!!
