I have a cunning plan my lord.   Above my UVC I’m going to use a HEP2O 22mm x 10mm manifold daisy chained with a HEP2O 22mm x 15mm manifold, both closed spigot versions.

 

I won’t need to open the closed spigot on the second manifold, but I will the first one.  Can I find instructions as to how exactly to do it?  Not even slightly.  AI tells me to use a HEP2O key (duh!), bless it.

But do I just cut it off?  If so, where exactly?  Where it narrows as indicated my my red arrow? And do I use an insert?   Oh the stress!  
 

If a passing grown up knows the answers I’d be ever so grateful….

Yes, where the red arrow is. ;) 

 

Use the pushfit pipe cutter, slight rotation as you cut.

OK thank you.  
 

Do I turn to my left or my right?   😉

One way the cutter tries to open, the other it wants to bite down. You need the latter. Practice on a piece of 22mm pipe then cut the fitting.

So is it just a slight turn to my right then, not like a full pirouette or anything.  I’d better make sure I’m not standing next to a wall or I’ll bang my nose as I spin round lol
