Tools Needed

To install the Suction Hose on a spray rig, you would need hose clamps, tubing cutters, and a crescent wrench or pair of pliers.

How to Use

• Step 1: Cut the hose to the appropriate length so it can comfortably connect between the pump inlet and tank of the spraying rig.
• Step 2: Connect one end of the suction hose to the tank and secure it with a hose clamp. Then, connect the opposite end to the tank inlet side and fasten it to the pump inlet. Again, use the hose clamp to secure it in place.
• Step 3: Once the hose is connected, turn on the spray rig's pump motor to test the part and ensure that liquid flows correctly through the hose with no leaks or issues.

Where to Use

When to Use
