Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install the Monument 1279 Black replacement hose, first ensure the gas supply is turned off and the pressure is released from the system. Disconnect the old hose from both the gas test gauge and the connection point. Attach the new Monument hose securely to both points, ensuring a tight seal to prevent leaks. Hand-tighten connections initially, then use appropriate tools for a final snug fit if required by the gauge fittings.
Compatibility: This hose is specifically designed to fit Monument gas test gauges. Verify that your Monument gauge model is compatible with a 5.5mm internal diameter hose before purchase. It is explicitly stated that this hose is not to be used for LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas).
Care: Periodically inspect the hose for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. Clean the exterior of the hose with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals, as these can degrade the material. Store the hose in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
