Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the
³⁄₄" fitting up to the valve and hand tighten to avoid

is tight. Using pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An
additional
¹⁄₄ to ¹⁄₂ turn may be required to seal the rubber
gasket.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can
result.
2. Check for leaks.
Place paper towel under 90° elbow fitting. Turn on water
supply and check for leaks. If leak occurs, repeat previous
step.

with motor, door springs, water line, cabinet, flooring or the
edge of the hole where it passes through the cabinet.
2. Place shallow pan under end of drain hose connector. Pan
will collect any water in drain hose.
