Changes to the Feed Hose

3. If the jet retainers are the old style shown below, remove them by breaking the glue joint with a flat blade screwdriver. If they are the new style jet retainers, skip to step 5.

4. Push the new float as close to the back-up valve as possible.

The Polaris in-line back-up valve and float should be installed 30" from the Polaris. Once installed, the hose should look like the one belo
