Either my 2260 is missing parts, or I'm dumb.

Probably the latter.

I write manuals for a living and whoever wrote this one should be shot. I can't figure this out. Even accounting for translation, the parts diagram still sucks.

The diagram is showing an unnumbered, unlabeled part that connects the spray bar to the outlet elbow, and a similar piece connecting the intake pipe to the strainer. I have nothing in my bag of parts that does this. All the parts that I do have are already accounted for on the diagram.

Am I missing something? Or is it a known thing that you need to go out and buy extra stuff?

I think you're supposed to cut a short length of the tubing to connect those parts together. I know that's the way it was with my 2217.

It looks like the green hose coupling...

Leptar, my diagram omits the word "hose" where yours has it. Thanks. That would have been very helpful to have written in there.

Birman , Yes its actually just a small chunk of your eheim tubing (1-2" of it) and yes it absolutely should be noted in the manual .
