CAUTION !
Do not damage the breathing hoses when removing
them. Always hold the hoses by the connection
sleeve and not by the spiral ribbing when removing
and connecting the breathing hoses, otherwise the
spiral ribbing may be torn off the sleeve. Breathing
hoses with damaged spiral ribbing can be easily
kinked which can interrupt the gas flow.
Always check the breathing hoses for damage prior
to use. Damaged breathing hoses must not be
used.
