Cutting the Feed Hose, (Continued)
4. Attach feed hose to the wall fi tting and attach to the pool wall. Hold the end of the
30 in. clear (soft) hose and walk the perimeter of the pool keeping the hose straight
(do not stretch hose) to fi nd the farthest point of the pool from the wall fi tting.
5. Measure the excess length between the farthest point of the pool from Wall
Fitting and the end of 30 in. clear (soft) hose.
6. Half of this measured length to be
cut equally from the 10 ft. long hoses next
to the Marked Swivel.
(
Example
: Half of 6 ft. = 3 ft. each). If you are cutting more
than 2 ft. off the hoses, remove the fl oats next to the Marked Swivel from both
hoses. See illustrations on page 5.
7. Re-assemble the hoses and the swivel using mender nuts (see image below,
Step 1). Put mender nut on swivels fi rst, then push hose over swivel (see image
below, Step 2). Rotate mender nut over hose clockwise until tight.
Note:
Keep as many fl oats as possible on the long feed hoses, spaced evenly
apart to hold hose up on top of water.
8. When cutting hoses, please use strong scissors or a sharp knife. Be sure to slide the
fl oats out of the way when cutting hose.
