The largest advantage of the notched design is that the coupling can be removed from a damaged hose by cutting away the ferrule, without necessarily damaging the fitting. After inspection of the fitting to determine its suitability for reuse, it can be reinstalled into another hose by using a new ferrule.

• To make a connection, simply slide the adapter into the coupler and with normal hand pressure, press the cam levers down.
• Uncoupling is as quick and simple as coupling. Just lift the cam arms and remove the adapter.

• Under no circumstances should cam and groove couplings be used for compressed air or steam service!
• Pressure rating recommendations are based on the use of mating Dixon fittings at ambient temperature 70°F with a standard seal installed. For use at elevated temperature or other unusual operating conditions, consult Dixon.
• Only use the NOS shank with the NOS ferrules.
• Due to differences in dimensions and tolerances for safety reasons, do not use other manufacturer's stems or ferrules with Dixon products
• For hose outside diameters of 2-4/64" and below, the couplings are crimp only
• For hose outside diameters of 2-5/64" and above, the couplings can be crimped or swaged.
• Contact Dixon for swage or crimp recommendations
• You must purchase a fitting and the matching ferrule to create an assembly.
