STEP 3
Installing your washer
1. Place the drain hose in the drain facility (tub,
sink, or standpipe.) If you connect the drain
hose to a standpipe, be sure an airtight
connection is NOT made between the drain
hose and the standpipe. The standpipe
must be at least 18 inches or 46 cm high
and no higher than 96 inches.
You must always exercise caution to avoid
collapsing or damaging the drain hose.
For best results, the drain hose should
not be restricted in any way – by elbows,
couplings, or excessive length. For
situations where the drain hose cannot be
conveniently elevated to at least 18 in or
46 cm, the drain hose must be supported.
Do not insert the drain hose too far into
the stand pipe: 6 - 8 inches, and no more.
2. Before connecting the inlet hoses to the water faucets,
make sure a washer is inside each coupling on both ends.
3. Thread the inlet hoses onto the HOT and COLD faucet
connections on the washer.
Attach the other end of each fill hose to a water valve. Make
sure the hose with Hot printed on it is attached to the HOT
faucet. Tighten by hand until snug, then tighten two-thirds of
a turn with pliers.
For correct water use, connect both HOT and COLD water
valves. If either or both are not connected, an “nF” (no fill)
error can occur.
