Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your hose has a clean, square cut end to maximize surface contact with the joiner barbs. If the hose is difficult to push on, applying a light film of soapy water or silicone lubricant can assist the process.
- Slide the included clamp onto the hose before attaching it to the joiner.
- Push the hose fully onto the barb until it sits flush against the shoulder of the elbow.
- Position the clamp over the barbed section and tighten firmly.
Compatibility is strictly limited to 16mm inner diameter hoses. Regular maintenance involves checking the connection points during routine oil changes to ensure clamps have not loosened due to heat cycling.
