I don't know what these particular connections look like, but you don't want to have any clamps sitting on top of a flare that is near the edge of metal or plastic tubes or pipes. I couldn't find an image of what I mean, but the flare looks like a bulging ring very close to (think of a gold wedding band) right at the end of a tube. Clamps should be positioned immediately past the flare, on the side away from the end.
