tapered thread of the
connector barb into the pump
port on the pump body.

required length. Make sure
cut is clean and square. Avoid
unnecessary loops or bends in the hose.
• Slide connector nut onto the trimmed end
of the hose with threaded end toward the cut end of the hose.
• Apply water to connector barb to help hose slide over barbs. Push trimmed edge
of hose fully onto the connector barb.
• Slide/Rotate the connector nut to the barb to engage threads correctly, do
not cross thread connector nut. Tighten the connector nut until threads are no
longer visible (gap about 1/8" or just less than the width of two dimes), or until
it touches the barb face.
