Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a laundry
tub, drainpipe, or bucket, to get rid of particles in the water
lines.
Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot
water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
Snap either end of the drain hose form to the drain hose at the
point where the corrugation begins (A). Bend the drain hose to
form and snap into place (B).
Place hose into standpipe (shown in picture) or over side of
laundry tub.
IMPORTANT: Only 4 1 /
2
" (113 mm) of drain hose should be
inside standpipe; do not force excess hose into standpipe or
lay on bottom of laundry tub. Drain hose form must be used.
CONNECT INLET HOSES
Insert new flat washers (supplied) into each end of the inlet
hoses. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.
Attach hose to hot water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand
until it is seated on washer. Use pliers to tighten couplings an
additional two-thirds turn. Repeat this step with second hose
for cold water faucet.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on
valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage can result.
HELPFUL TIP: Make note of which hose is connected to hot
water to help in attaching hoses to washer correctly. In most
standard configurations, hoses will cross over each other when
attached correctly.
Washer must be connected to water faucets with new inlet
hoses (A) with flat washers (B) (not provided). Do not use old
hoses.
NOTE: Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing
to inlet valves. For optimal performance, hot and cold water
must be supplied to the washer.
