I connected a 1" diameter pond hose to the click-fit adapter, and it is not a secure fit. Shot right off! Any suggestions??

Orings have to be on and the right ones that's what helps it click into place

Well not sure if this will help, but I have an older my pool with just a 1" PVC pipe/hole for the outflows. I took the connector to the hardware store and rummaged around between the PVC pipe fittings, and the sprinkler fittings and jury rigged a barbed ended reducer. It took three different pieces between the outflow and the waterfall connector to make it fit, but it works great, so I am assuming you may be able to do something similar.

I bought the wrong attachment hose. It didn't fit on my machine, so I sent it back. I haven't ordered another one, although it would be very handy. Make sure you get the right one.

There is an adapter for that fits on the hose. I saw it while perusing the FoodSaver site under the "accessories" tab.

I used a male adapter for the black waterline don't remember 1 1/2" or 1 1/4" from local hardware store. I have a picture if you send your email mine is tobobby63@ hotmail.com

I can't remember the size of the fitting but I do remember that I had to use an adapter to get down to the standard size air hose as the output was larger. My pump came with an adapter. Four feet would be no problem for this little pump, my pond is very deep and it pumps like a champ.

You will most likely have to buy an adapter to get it to fit depending on the hose aize you have. They sell those adapters at lowes or home depot

As with you the one I got was too small. so I just left the pump that came with pool attached to skimmer and just ran hose from old pump to the basket filter going into the motor on the sand filter and it worked just fine. Until I can find a bigger adapter it works. FYI you do not need to plug in the pump attached to skimmer. Just the motor with the sand filter. Hope this helps

The hose I have (that comes with the skimmer) has a 1 and a half inch inside diameter and the hose fits snugly. I'm certain that you could not fit a l & 1/4 inch hose onto this fitting! If you have an Intex above ground pool, it is the exact same part as the one that came with the pool. I purchased another one so that I could put one on both the inlet and the outlet sides and then place plugs in them from the inside which allowed me to leave the pool full of water for winter. That way, I didn't have to drain any of the water from my pool before winterizing. All I did was remove the valves, hoses, and pump for the winter. I live in Utah where the pool freezes over.

I bought a similar one from Home Depot and then swapped fittings. Needed to get some adapters in their fitting isle as well to make it work.

I wish I could attach a picture for you. You do not need an adapter it will hook directly to your hose. It fits the small and regular size hose ends.

Hello Frank, The connector doesn't click in place, but the fit is usually snug. If you still see metal when you connect it, go ahead and wrap it in electrical tape. Nathaniel www.FortressSecurityStore.com

I would use a real flexible hose something from HD or Loews with a 1/4 in. Fitting that's all you need

It should fit at the end of a standard hose. Spend the money and go with the brass, don't use the chrome ones, I've had bad luck with those.

I'm not sure of the sizing of the fittings that you reference, but I use hard pvc couplers, etc. that I purchase at Home Depot with the flexible pipe for my pond. They do need to be glued together. If you're using a fitting that goes into the flexible pipe, it's helpful to put the end of the pipe in hot water 1st and it makes it more flexible.

I don't think the threaded hose attachmentWill fit your model if it does u should beAble to use it!

Solid maybe? The outflow hose is smaller in diameter than a garden hose and it doesn't have a threaded fitting like a garden hose. That said, I think you could probably find something at your hardware store to rig up greater hose length if you need it. Maybe the same size hose and a double-sided coupler to connect the two? Maybe a slightly bigger diameter hose that you can fit over the one on the pump and then clamp? Good luck.
