6. Start the tapered end of the Q.D. Plug
(15) into the Hose Socket. See Figure
9-12-A.
7. Use a 2-inch open-end wrench to tighten
the Q.D. Plug (15) into the Hose Socket
(14). See Figure 9-10-B.
The taper of the Q.D. Plug moves into
the Hose Socket and inside the Whip
Hose. The larger end of the taper ex-
pands the Whip Hose and presses it
against the Hose Socket. The Whip Hose
is locked in place between the Q.D. Plug
and the Hose Socket.
8. Tighten the Q.D. Plug
just enough to
secure the two fittings together and to
secure the Whip Hose in the Hose
Socket. Overtightening can damage the
hose and it may pull apart under ten-
sion.
