Connect hoses

Note

Limited number of mating cycles

One fitting is designed for five mating cycles.

Procedure

1. Cut the hose burr-free at an angle of 90° ± 5°, if possible with a suitable hose cutter.
This step must be performed immediately before each connection.

2. Ensure that the hose is free of oil and grease.

3. Ensure that the end of the hose is free of scratches.

4. Optional: place a mark 14 mm from the end of the hose.
This allows you to check whether the hose has been fully inserted after connection.

5. Grasp the hose approx. 20 mm from the end with your fingers.
The hose should be as straight as possible and not bent.

6. Push the hose into the fitting up to the first stop.

You will feel a slight resistance.

7. Carefully push on until the second stop is reached.
The stop is at 14 mm insertion depth.
