A.6 HOSE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Hose is weakened when installed in twisted
position. Pressure in twisted hose tends to
loosen fitting connections. Design so that
machine motion produces bending rather than
twisting.
3. Exceeding minimum bend radius will greatly
reduce hose assembly life.
5. When hose assembly is installed in a flexing
application, remember that metal hose fittings
are not part of the flexible portion. Allow
ample free length for flexing.

APPENDIX A: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
2. Ample bend radius should be provided to
avoid collapsing of line and restriction of flow.
4. Use elbows or other adapters as necessary to
eliminate excess hose length and to insure
neater installation for easier maintenance.
6. When properly routing, use clamps to secure
the hose in its proper position.
