1.
Wrap hose tightly with tape at
cutting point. Using a fine tooth
hacksaw, cable cutters or radiac
wheel, cut the hose in the middle of
the tape. Remove tape after cutting,
being careful not to fray the braid.
2.
Twist hose into socket to the depth
indicated by the hose insertion mark
on the outside of the socket. This
should be just short of the back of the
threads.
3.
VERY IMPORTANT— Mark hose with
tape or suitable marking device at rear
of socket. This mark will later indicate
to you if the hose has pushed out of
the socket during assembly.
4.
Using motor oil or assembly lube,
liberally lubricate inside of hose in
socket and threads on nipple end of
hose fitting.
5.
Clamp socket and hose in a smooth
jaw vise as shown in the illustration in
Figure 48. Do not over tighten, as this
can easily deform the socket. A layer
of masking tape can be wrapped
around the socket to protect the
finish.
6.
Push the nipple portion of the
fitting into the socket and hose while
turning to engage the threads.
Continue tightening by hand as far as
possible to make sure that the threads
are properly mated with no cross
threading.
7.
Using a wrench, complete
tightening until a 1 ⁄ 16 ” gap or less
exists between the hex portions of the
socket and nipple.
8.
Check mark made on hose in step
3 for any evidence of hose push-out.
Rinse the completed hose assembly
with solvent and blow dry.
