New mask doesn't seem to connect to hose or machine????

New mask doesn't seem to connect to hose or machine????
I picked up a new Swift fx Nano For Her nasal mask today... But it doesn't seem to connect to either my ResMed Climate line hose, or directly into the AirSense 10 Auto set machine? What gives? Is it because it's a "For Her" mask and everything else is standard? I took pictures, but can't seem to attach them, so hopefully that makes sense.
Thanks!

You may have left part of the old mask attached to the hose, such as a swivel or short hose. Any mask can be used with any hose (except that short hoses usually aren't interchangeable).

i do not have your mask but i looked on you tube and found a video on fitting instructions that may be of assistance. It shows the tube from the mask attaching to the tube from the machine. i hope this helps.

The F&P Simplus has a small grey bushing that is in the end of the hose. It acts as a quick disconnect from the mask. You need to insert your finger in it and wiggle it out of the hose.
