[QUOTE="Tathradj, post: 175681, member: 2436"] Solved. You got me curious so I went had had a look at my cam locks and fabric hose. Have a look at the barbs on the cam lock. You will see the first one is slightly larger than the others then there is another one half way up. I cut the cam lock barbs of in front of the second one leaving about 3 or 4 left. I then cut 2 slots opposite up the canvas hose about 20 mm long. Using dish washing liquid, I got two pairs of pliers then pulled it down over the barbs. It is a tight fit but does go on. Don't worry about the hose coming off. As I said before, We only pump at 30 to 40psi. Not 2 or 300 psi. And ONLY use band clamps. I use this as an example. .
