HOSE INSTALLATION

HOSE INSTALLATION TIPS

1. Connect larger diameter hoses first. Larger hoses are more difficult to bend and
maneuver, while the smaller lines are usually more flexible and easier to install.
2. Do not twist the hose during installation. Pressure applied to a twisted hose can
result in premature hose failure or loose connections.
3. Attach both ends of the hose to their connection points. Let the hose find its natural
position, then tighten both ends of the hose using a wrench (t6) and backup wrench
(t6a).
4. Torque hose to specifications.
