there is an aluminum vise jig just for holding the an fitting... I know they sell a fancy big tool setup but I have never had a need to use that!

I have two of them.........one attached to the end of each arm.
The big thing is the cut........if you get that clean , you are golden.
Tape it up and zip it with a cut off wheel .....blow the crud out of the line and use a bit-o- motor oil on the inside of the line.
Works 99.9873 % of the time.

I just tape the area of the hose where I will cut
(I cut in the middle of the tape) and it holds the
wires nice so you can slide the fitting over the hose

as far as cutting the hose I use a pair of short hand held cutters from lowes(kobalt) and it cuts through real swift with no tape up to about 8an.....

So do you leave the tape on during install, and remove it later, or will the fitting cover the tape enough so that you can't see it?

thanks alot

the fitting will go over the tape(and not be visible if to long)! I used the clear strapping tape in the past! I also use to apply a lil petroleum jelly also to help the install!

I use chop saw with an actual blade made of steel, and electrical tape. Works pretty slick. Assemble with a little lube, no special tools here either...

After years of fighting with those things I discovered a neat trick. Rather than tape I use a very small hose clamp which not only acts as a guide for my cut off wheel but also compresses the hose enough so it easily slips into the fitting. Works really well!!!!!
