hI-OOPS-CAPS Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Im putting together my magura, as I have a lever and 2 slaves, model before 05. I wondering if I can use the shroud nut and olive to connect the hose to the lever and one slave of this year model. Also if I get the nuts and olives is it self explanitory to fit them?Lastly is it possible to heat the magura hose to fit the barbed fitting?Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 you connect the main long hose of the system using an olive and shroud nut on either end, then you use a barbed on with side of the crossover.dont heat it. its meant to be put on at normal temperature..

gianttrials Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) to fit the barb you need magura sleeves, they hold the tubing steady while you tap the barbed/bolt in Edited June 5, 2007 by gianttrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Limburn Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 yeah dont heat ityou could do with the clamps, then just tap the fitting in with a hammer...you could try clamping it without the proper clamps, just make sure you dont damage the hose!

dave85 Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 The clamps are pretty easy to make, drill a piece of wood (best to be about an inch thick or more) 5mm, then saw it in half through the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
