QUICK – DISCONNECT
The feed hose is connected to the quick-disconnect and the machine with compress-align
fittings. If the feed hose must be repaired or replaced, follow this procedure:
1. To replace hose, unscrew the compress-align nuts on both ends and remove the hose
(new hoses and compress-align nuts are available from KEISER).
2. To shorten the hose, unscrew chrome compress-align nut from the quick-disconnect
and cut the hose to the desired length. Slide a new chrome nut (an extra one is
supplied with each machine) onto hose.
3. To tighten the compress-align nuts, slide the hose all the way into the fitting and
thread the nut on hand-tight. Tighten the brass nut one full turn more with a ½ in.
open-end wrench. The chrome nut may require more turns, due to the chrome on the
threads. Make sure the hose is held securely in place at both fittings.
