Cooling and Bilge System Hoses
Hose Removal
•
The majority of bilge hoses have no clamps at the hose
ends. The majority of bilge system hoses may be simply
pulled off their fittings.
NOTE
○
Some of the bilge system hoses have plastic clamps at
hose ends.
•
All the cooling system hoses are clamped at both ends.
Loosen the clamps and pull the hoses off.
Hose Installation
•
To install the bilge filter hose, push the hose over the end
of the filter.
NOTE
○
Some of the bilge system hoses have plastic clamps at
hose ends.
•
When installing the cooling system hoses, be sure to
use the same kind of clamp as the original. Some of the
clamps are metal for tighter clamping ability (required
when smooth fittings are used). Plastic clamps are used
where tight clamping is not required.
Hose Inspection
