E. Cutting the Feed Hose - (cont.)

3.Lay the telepole next to the clear (soft) hose. If the clear (soft) hose is longer than the mark on the telepole, cut the excess from the end attached to the white (hard) hose. Do not cut off the float. Leave the first float in position next to the Back-Up Valve. Place the second float midway between the first float and the Hose Swivel.

4.Attach feed hose to the wall fitting and attach to the pool wall. Hold the end of the 30 in. clear (soft) hose and walk the perimeter of the pool keeping the hose straight (do not stretch hose) to find the farthest point of the pool from the wall fitting.

5.Measure the excess length between the farthest point of the pool from Wall Fitting and the end of 30 in. clear (soft) hose.

6.Half of this measured length to be cut equally from the 10 ft. long hoses next to the Marked Swivel. (Example: Half of 6 ft. = 3 ft. each). If you are cutting more than 2 ft. off the hoses, remove the floats next to the Marked Swivel from both hoses. See Figures on page 4.

7.Re-assemble the hoses and the swivel using mender nuts (see Figure below, Step 1). Put mender nut on swivels first, then push hose over swivel (see Figure below, Step 2). Rotate mender nut over hose clockwise until tight. Note: Keep as many floats as possible on the long feed hoses, spaced evenly apart to hold hose up on top of water.
