andyroo Posted June 14, 2005 Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 you dont need a special tool! on the end of the hosing, you slid the plastic cover, then the metal bolt, then the olive. screw the bolt into the lever until reasonably tight, then hey presto! all done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a bummer and a few days waiting for another one it looks like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty_man Posted June 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2005 The olive fits over the hose that i have, so if i put everything together then it just slides in and out. is there a drawing that i could get off the internet somwhere. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
