See

Figure 3-27

. The oil lines used in the Precision Cooling

System incorporate flanged oil lines and quick connect fittings.
Quick connect fittings can be separated using either the OIL
LINE REMOVER, 1/2 INCH (Part No. HD-46503) or OIL LINE
REMOVER, 3/8 INCH (Part No. HD-49096).

1.

Close the OIL LINE REMOVER over the oil line. Match
the notches in the tool flange to the U-bends in the retainer
clip.

2.

Rotate the tool to expand the spring clip.

3.

Use finger and thumb to hold the OIL LINE REMOVER
squarely against the fitting to keep the spring clip
expanded. Use only enough pressure to hold the tool
square. Excess pressure will prevent simultaneously
pulling the line and tool from the fitting.

4.

Pull the oil line and the tool from the fitting.

5.

Apply a light film of clean engine oil to the oil line. This
eases assembly and prevents damage to the connector
O-ring.

6.

To assemble, push the oil line squarely into quick connect
fitting to connect.
