Dayco recommends that all users familiarize themselves with Dayco's warning
statements, SAE J1273, and the Kwikrimp® concept, found in this operator's manual.
Select the Dayco hose and coupling to be assembled.
Determine the correct crimp
setting from the crimp specifications
sheet.
Determine hose cut length
by subtracting the cutoff factor for
each coupling from the overall
length of the assembly. For these
cutoff factors, see Dayco's
published catalog data.
Cut the hose square and to the proper length with a suitable saw.
Coat the coupling stem with Dayco hose assembly lubricant (HAL16) to ease hose
insertion. Insert the hose until it "bottoms" in the coupling shell.
To insure that the hose is bottomed in the collar, mark the insertion depth on the hose
before inserting it into the coupling (see figure below).
Using a clockwise twisting motion or fixing the hex on the coupling in a vise may help when
tolerances are tight.
