Default STAT---need help with a new GTT torch hookup
Hey guys, got kinda a problem. I have my system all up and running---the right connectors and everything. The problem I am having is that these are new hoses and I cannot get the cut end of the hose with the clamp to slide over the studs on the torch. It isn't an easy fit. I am afraid I am not strong enough to do it and I am hurting my shoulder trying, and my husband has MS. He is trying but I think it is bothering him. Is there some special trick to getting these things together? Lubricant? I do realize you can't use anything petroleum based, but I can't be the first one with this problem. Help appreciated.
