2. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly install and prepare your adapter for use:

1. Prepare Water System: Ensure all water sources to your RV, camper, or irrigation system are turned off. Drain as much water as possible from the system through existing drain points.
2. Locate Connection Point: Identify the main water inlet for your RV or the garden hose connection point for your irrigation system.
3. Attach Adapter: Screw the threaded end of the Hemobllo adapter onto the RV water inlet or standard garden hose connection. Hand-tighten until secure. Do not overtighten.
4. Connect Air Compressor: Attach the quick-connect fitting of your air compressor hose to the quick-connect end of the Hemobllo adapter. Ensure a firm, secure connection.

3. Operating Instructions

Once the adapter is securely installed and connected to an air compressor, proceed with the winterization process:

1. Set Air Pressure: Adjust your air compressor to a low pressure setting, typically between 20-40 PSI (pounds per square inch). Consult your RV or irrigation system manual for recommended maximum air pressure. Do not exceed recommended pressure to avoid damage.
2. Open Faucets/Valves: Starting with the faucet or valve furthest from the adapter, open one at a time.
3. Apply Air: Slowly introduce compressed air into the system. Air will push residual water out through the open faucet/valve. Continue until only air flows out.
4. Repeat for All Outlets: Close the first faucet/valve and move to the next one, repeating the process until all water lines (hot and cold, indoor and outdoor showers, toilets, washing machine connections, etc.) have been cleared of water.
5. Disconnect: Once all lines are clear, turn off the air compressor, disconnect the air hose from the adapter, and then unscrew the adapter from your RV or irrigation system.

Important: Always follow safety guidelines when operating an air compressor. Wear appropriate eye protection.

4. Maintenance

The Hemobllo adapter is constructed from durable copper material designed for longevity and reliable performance. Minimal maintenance is required:

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe the adapter clean with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or debris. If necessary, a damp cloth can be used, followed by thorough drying.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the threads and quick-connect fitting for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure the adapter remains free of obstructions.
• Storage: Store the adapter in a clean, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight when not in use.

5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter:

• Difficulty Connecting:
  • Ensure the threads on your RV inlet or garden hose are clean and free of debris.
  • Verify that you are using a standard garden hose thread connection.
  • Check for any cross-threading. If resistance is met, unscrew and try again, ensuring the adapter is straight.
• Air Leaks at Connection:
  • Ensure the adapter is securely hand-tightened to the water inlet.
  • Verify the air compressor quick-connect fitting is fully engaged with the adapter.
  • Inspect the rubber washer (if present) inside the threaded connection for damage or proper seating. Replace if necessary.
• Insufficient Airflow:
  • Check your air compressor's pressure setting and ensure it is turned on and functioning correctly.
  • Ensure all other faucets and valves in the system are closed, directing air pressure to the open outlet.
