Let G be a bundle functor of order ( r , s , q ) , s r q , on the category m , n of ( m , n ) -dimensional fibered manifolds and local fibered diffeomorphisms. Given a general connection Γ on an m , n -object Y M we construct a general connection 𝒢 ( Γ , λ , Λ ) on G Y Y be means of an auxiliary q -th order linear connection λ on M and an s -th order linear connection Λ on Y . Then we construct a general connection 𝒢 ( Γ , 1 , 2 ) on G Y Y by means of auxiliary classical linear connections 1 on M and 2 on Y . In the case G = J 1 we determine all general connections 𝒟 ( Γ , ) on J 1 Y Y from general connections Γ on Y M by means of torsion free projectable classical linear connections on Y .
