3.8.2 Hose Carrier Assembly Replacement
1. Carefully lay the new hose carrier assembly out flat
on a hard surface.
2. Stretch the “male” ends (1) of the hoses out straight
from the end of the hose carrier assembly (2).
Measure back from the end of the “male” end of
each hose to the center of the pivot point (3) of the
hose carrier mount (4). This measurement should be
201" (510,5 cm). All four hoses MUST be equal in
length from the hose carrier.
3. If the hoses are not equal in length or not to the
specified dimension, the hoses must be repositioned
in the hose carrier assembly. Cut the tie wraps (5)
holding the hoses to the hose carrier and reposition
the hoses as required in either direction. Be sure all
the hoses are to the specified dimension and
assemble new tie wraps back in place.
4. With the hose carrier assembly (6) laid out flat on a
level surface, stretch the four “male” ends of the
hoses out straight from the hose carrier assembly.
Measure from the end of the male end (7) of each
hose back toward the hose carrier assembly 196"
(498 cm) and apply tape (8) around each hose at
that point. The tape is for proper tensioning of the
hoses during reassembly of the hose clamps.
5. Fold the new hose carrier assembly (9) in half and
slide into the inner boom. Be careful while folding the
hose carrier in half.
IMPORTANT: The hose carrier only folds one way,
DO NOT force it. DO NOT twist the hose carrier while
folding.
6. Ensure the “female” ends (10) of the hoses are on
the bottom and carefully slide the folded hose carrier
into the inner boom (11). Guide the hose carrier
assembly in between the channels of the hose
channel assembly.
