For a laundry tub or standpipe drain, connect the drain hose
form. For a floor drain, do not install drain hose form. You
may need alternate parts with separate directions. See
“Tools and Parts” to determine what you may need.
Feed hose into one end of form. Bend hose and feed through
other side, anchoring form on smooth sections of hose. The
hose must extend 4 1 /
2
" (114 mm) beyond the form.

Connect drain hose form
Place hose into standpipe (shown in picture) or over side
of laundry tub.
IMPORTANT: To keep drain water from going back into
the washer:
■ Do not force excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose
should be secure but loose enough to provide a gap
for air.
■ Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry
tub.

CONNECT INLET HOSES
Make sure the washer basket is empty. Attach the hose
labeled hot 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 the hose
labeled cold for the cold water faucet. Both hoses must
be connected for washer to work properly.
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.

Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.
Run water for a few seconds through hoses into a laundry
tub, drainpipe, or bucket to avoid clogs. Water should run
until clear. Check the temperature of the water to make sure
that the hot water hose is connected to the hot water faucet
and the cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
