RISK OF SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD, WHICH, IF NOT AVOIDED CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH. Ensure that your vacuum suction fittings installed in your pool for connection of
your suction-side pool cleaner are certified as being compliant with applicable safety standards such as
IAPMO SPS 4. Do not block the suction fittings with any part or your body. Do not expose your hair,
loose clothing, jewelry, etc. to any suction outlet fittings or hose ends in the pool/spa.
STEP 2. Assemble Hose Sections
Push and/or twist the connector on each hose section until they lock into position with a clicking sound
(Figure 2). Twist-lock hose cuffs have three (3) connection positions. Any of the three (3) positions are
sufficient for an air-tight seal.
