Photo 6. Lexon Tube

 The above picture shows how the Lexon tube is attached to the main hose. The black O-ring is necessary for the wands to seal properly onto the Lexon tube. The picture below shows where the Y-strainer should be mounted to the machine and ahead of the transfer hose. Later models may have this plumbed inside the machine. Notice the direction and position of the Y-strainer. The strainer is absolutely necessary to keep your warranties intact.
