CAUTION
!
Note: To prevent injury, wear safety gear when
cutting or grinding hose clamps.
The hose clamps P#(J1000), provided with your
collection system, will fit hose sizes 6" through 9". The
excess should be cut from the clamp prior to installing
the hoses. Follow the steps listed to properly install the
hose clamps to your collection system.
Step 1: Measure from hose clamp's fastening end (end
with tension screw) to the dimension specified for your
hose diameter and mark the clamp for cutting. Refer to
Figure 2-19a.
6" Hose - Cut to 23"
7" Hose - Cut to 26"
8" Hose - Cut to 29"
9" Hose - Cut to 32"

Step 2: See note on Caution above! Cut the hose clamp
at mark determined from Step 1. It is recommended to
use heavy-duty snips or a cutting wheel. Refer to Figure
2-19b and 2-19c.
