5. Thread the return couplers together, the larger of the two couplers (Liebert XD Flex Pipe and
return main).
6. Use one of the adjustable wrenches to hold the fixed side of the female coupler on the Liebert
XDCF stationary. With the other adjustable wrench, tighten the collar onto the coupler.
Tighten these only until the force required to tighten abruptly increases. See Figure 14.
NOTICE
Do not overtighten the couplers. Overtightening of couplers will damage the couplers.

7. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 for the smaller coupler (supply line).
8. Once the supply and return connections are completed, open the return service valve, then open
the supply service valve.
With the equipment running, cool air is discharged from the back of the Liebert XDCF.
