Default how do you put AN fittings onto ss line? I dont get it

this is probly a really dumb question but I cant figue out how to put my oil return line together, its from fastturbo.com so I think there earls fittings? I tryed just pushing the line in really hard but all it does is scratch the anodizing off and its far from sliding right in, am I missing something?

When I installed a -10AN fitting on my -10AN line you didn't have to cut any of the metal. You just forced it in to the little line on the fitting.

you have to wrap the end of the pipe with tape and push and twist like a *****
The best way is to use a bench clamp and twist on with a wrench.

oil the fitting and the inside of the tube, shove it halfway in there, screw the fitting on halfway, shove it in and as far as it can go, then tighten the bitch down
