I'm not familiar with that exact model of tuner. The procedure for connecting the hoses will be in the shop manual. Basically you're just removing a plug or hose from each carb and connecting the tuner to it.

Raise the tank and support it on the support rod. Remove the little rubber plug from the top front of each carb. Connect the sync tube to each carb nipple in order. Number 2 carb is the base carb. It can not be adjusted, so each carb is set to it. The adjusters are in front of and down between each carb. You need a long screwdriver. Find out where they are before you start, as you will be bending over and around the gas tank. Without pushing down too hard, turn each adjuster to raise or lower the mercury level so it is even with number two cylinder. Do all three and go back to even them out. After you finish, make sure the rubber caps go on correctly or you will have a massive air leak.

Oh I see. I was under the impression you already had the tool and didn't know how to use it. It WILL work for your bike. If you noticed in the picture I found it comes with attachments that will work with practically any motorcycle built in the last 30 years.

I have a '90 CBR 1000F. The sync nipple on each carb is quite thin. The inside-diameter tubing on my old Carb Stix was too large to stick tightly to the CBR's nipples so I had to make a rubber tube adaptor for each nipple. Or you could get thinner tubing. Or the Carbtune might have the right tubing.
