On re-assembly, coat the threads [not the contact sealing surfaces, with
anti-seize [available at about any FLAPS if you ask for it].

If you get a little on the cone seal, it's not going to hurt anything much.
Anti-seize will keep the threads from welding together over time and next
time you open the connection, it will be lots easier.

Use normal torque loads on the fittings, nothing changes.
