Using these hose clips is easy. Just place them around the hose where you need to secure it. Make sure the clip is properly tightened but don't over - tighten as it might damage the hose. When it comes to maintenance, since they're made of stainless steel, they're quite resistant to corrosion. But it's a good idea to check them regularly for any signs of wear or loosening, especially if you're using the motorcycle in tough conditions. Keep them clean to maintain their polished look. If you have any issues within the 12 - month warranty period, you can contact the manufacturer for support.
