USER MANUAL XHP100 xhose

NEW IMPROVED CONSTRUCTION XHOSE

YOUR XHOSE IS LIGHTWEIGHT AND COMPACT WITH A LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT THAN OTHER COMPARABLE HOSES AND YOU DON'T NEED TO PURCHASE A REEL TO STORE IT ON, SIMPLY STORE IT IN A PLANT POT OR BUCKET OR HANG THE XHOSE SPIGOT HOOK (SOLD SEPARATELY) OVER YOUR OUTSIDE TAP AND IT'S READY TO STORE YOUR HOSE.

TO START USING YOUR XHOSE WITH ACCESSORIES:

• INSERT ACCESSORY INTO CONNECTOR
• TURN VALVE TO CLOSED POSITION AND TURN WATER ON - XHOSE WILL EXPAND UP TO 3X ITS ORIGINAL LENGTH
• SLOWLY TURN THE ARM ON THE PRESSURE VALVE TO OPEN TO REQUIRED WATER PRESSURE

YOUR XHOSE WILL FIT ANY STANDARD 3/4" TAP NOTE: AN ADAPTOR IS INCLUDED FOR 1/2" TAPS

YOUR XHOSE MUST BE CONNECTED TO AN EXTERNAL TAP OR PUMP.

THE XHOSE END CONNECTOR IS EU STANDARD SIZING SO WILL CONNECT TO ALMOST ANY GARDEN HOSE ACCESSORIES.

DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS PRODUCT YOU MAY GET SLIGHT LEAKAGE WHEN YOU ATTACH YOUR HOSE TO THE TAP DIRECTLY. IF THIS HAPPENS PLEASE USE THE TAP ADAPTOR THAT IS INCLUDED WITH YOUR XHOSE. THIS ADAPTOR SHOULD REDUCE OR EVEN STOP THE HOSE FROM LEAKING.

TO START USING YOUR XHOSE WITHOUT ACCESSORIES:

• REMOVE THE END CONNECTOR
• TURN VALVE TO CLOSED POSITION AND TURN WATER ON - XHOSE WILL EXPAND UP TO 3X ITS ORIGINAL LENGTH
• SLOWLY TURN THE ARM ON THE PRESSURE VALVE TO OPEN TO REQUIRED WATER PRESSURE
• PLEASE NOTE: IF TAP IS FULLY OPENED THIS MAY LEAD TO LOSS OF PRESSURE AND YOUR HOSE MAY CONTRACT

THE XHOSE HAS BEEN TESTED AT STANDARD 3 BAR PRESSURE (EQUIVALENT TO 100 LITRES PER MINUTE). *WATER PRESSURE VARIES GREATLY ACROSS THE UK DEPENDENT ON LOCATION, INTERNAL PLUMBING SYSTEMS, HOW MUCH DEMAND THERE IS AT THE TIME AND HOW FULL THE RESERVOIRS ARE. UK WATER PRESSURE CAN VARY BETWEEN 1 AND 6 BAR. YOUR WATER COMPANY WILL BE ABLE TO ADVISE YOU FURTHER.

HOW DO I LOOK AFTER MY HOSE:

TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF YOUR XHOSE STORE INDOORS - IF LEFT IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT THE FABRIC WILL FADE. IN FREEZING CONDITIONS, IF WATER IS LEFT INSIDE YOUR XHOSE, IT MAY CAUSE SPLITTING. AFTER EACH USE, TURN THE WATER OFF AND OPEN THE VALVE TO RELEASE THE WATER FROM INSIDE THE XHOSE SO IT WILL CONTRACT TO A SMALL SIZE.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WHEN YOU FIRST USE YOUR XHOSE BLUE DYE FROM THE OUTER WEBBING MAY TRANSFER WHEN IN CONTACT WITH WATER. WE ADVISE YOU TO SOAK THE XHOSE IN WATER (2X FOR 10 MINUTES EACH) BEFORE USE. THIS SHOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF BLUE DYE TRANSFERRED.
