Default Compression joints and spinach.

Hi all,

OK...compression joints...

Hand tight and then 3/4 turn using a spanner.

When I do hand tight and then attempt a 3/4 turn...I give up.

Do I need to each more spinach?

Do it up until it creaks and judders slightly.
Obviously hand-tight is relative. It may be that you need *less*
spinach !
