NOTE: When cutting the hose, it is necessary to cut
across the band of the hose. The easiest method for
cutting the hose is to use a utility knife to cut the clear
section of the hose and use wire cutter or tin snips to cut
the band. Before cutting, note the decal on the inside of
the hose noting the blower end. CUT THE OPPOSITE
END.
