4.Connect one end of the 36 in. (914 mm) hose into the adapter and the other hose end into the snap-over valve’s (27) union (82). (FIG. 8)

The bleed-type master air valve is required in your system to relieve air trapped between this valve and the pump after the air is shut off. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly and cause serious injury, including splashing in the yes or on the skin. Position the valve close to the pump.
