CONNECT THE INLET HOSES
1. Insert new flat washers (supplied) into
each end of the inlet hoses. Firmly seat
the washers in the couplings.
CONNECT THE INLET HOSES TO
THE WATER FAUCETS
Make sure the washer basket is empty.
2. Attach the hose labeled hot to the hot
water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand
until it is seated on the washer.
3. Attach the hose labeled cold to the cold
water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand
until it is seated on the washer.
4. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with
an additional two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or seal-
ants on the valve. Damage to the valves can
result.
Clear the water lines
Run water through both faucets and inlet
hoses, into a laundry tub, drainpipe or buck
-
et, to get rid of particles in the water lines
that might clog the inlet valve screens.
Check the temperature of the water to
make sure that the hot water hose is con
-
nected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold
water faucet.
Tighten the couplings with an additional two-thirds turn.
