Troubleshooting
Bag doesn't expand properly
Ensure no items are obstructing the expansion zipper or the internal fabric. Check that the main zipper is fully open.
Hoses/cords unraveling despite the strap
Ensure the security strap is pulled taut and fastened securely. Reposition hoses/cords to allow the strap to lie flat and apply even pressure.
Zipper is difficult to open or close
Check for fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth and work the zipper back and forth.
Bag feels excessively heavy
Review the items packed. Ensure you are not exceeding the 15lbs/7kg max payload. Distribute weight evenly and utilize the shoulder strap for carrying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Hose Hauler Blackout arrives ready for use. Load your hoses, extension cords, and tools, utilizing the removable internal strap to secure them. Configure the internal pouches as needed for your tools. The shoulder strap can be attached for transport.
Compatibility: This bag is designed for hoses (refrigerant, air, water), extension cords, and associated tools such as manifold gauges, vacuum pumps, refrigerant scales, and electrical testers. It is not designed for carrying sharp objects without protective cases or for extremely heavy or abrasive materials beyond its payload limit.
Care: The interior is made of water/oil-resistant tarpaulin, which can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough wipe-down with clean water. Ensure the bag is fully dry before storing to prevent mildew. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. The exterior can be cleaned with a damp cloth; check zippers periodically and lubricate if necessary with a silicone-based lubricant.
