Seal-Lok™ fittings
1 Replace the O-ring. The O-ring must be replaced
anytime the seal has been broken. The O-ring
cannot be re-used if the fitting or hose end has
been tightened beyond finger tight.

fittings and hose ends are custom-size O-rings.
They are not standard SAE size O-rings. They are
available in the O-ring field service kit (Genie part
number 49612).

retained properly.

seal end of the fitting and tighten the nut finger
tight.

hoses and fittings and related components to
confirm that there are no leaks.
