Regularly inspect hoses for cuts, abrasions, or signs of wear. Check the strainer for blockages or damage. Inspect cam and groove adapters for proper sealing and latching mechanisms.
- Storage:
Store hoses in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Coil hoses neatly to prevent kinks and damage. Ensure the strainer is clean and dry before storage.
- Temperature Range:
Avoid operating or storing the hoses outside the recommended working temperature range of -5℃ to 65℃ (23°F to 149°F) to prevent material degradation.
