IMPORTANT
- For use with water in exposed locations only.
- Do not use with Gas.
- Vectis DZA adaptors or similar should be used with this connector, the seals can be damaged if connected to fittings with a narrow wall thickness.
- Do not twist the connector when tightening as this can cause torsion stress that may damage the connector and shorten the operational life.
- Do not overtighten.
- Do not bend within 30mm of end corrugations.
- If water pressure exceeds 500kpa a pressure limiting valve should be fitted.
Vectis Trading Ltd assumes no liability for any failure due to incorrect installation or application of this connector.

Installation of Extendable Connectors
- The hose line should be installed without being exposed to twisting.
- No torsion stress should occur during the installation or under operating conditions otherwise the service life of the hose will be reduced.
- Do not bend the connector to tight a radius, if a tight radius bend is required use a 90 degree brass elbow.
- Only one end of the hose must be tightened first to be assured that no twisting on the hose assembly occurs that can cause torsion stress.
- Finally the other end of the hose must be connected and the nut tightened while a second spanner is used to hold and prevent the hose from twisting.
- If the water pressure exceeds 500 kpa it is recommended to fit a pressure limiting valve on the incoming supply, if attached to a hot water cylinder it is also recommended to fit a 500kpa cold water expansion valve
- Do not extend past 220mm
