CONNECTING THE WATER LINES f
*iMPORTANT: Use new hoses when installing the
washer. Do NOT reuse old hoses.
• Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 psi and
142 psi (100 - 980 kPa). If the water supply pressure is more
than 142 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.
• Periodically check the hose for cracks, leaks, and wear,
and replace the hose if necessary.
• Make sure that the water lines are not stretched,
pinched, crushed, or kinked.
• The washer should never be installed or stored in a
location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to the
water lines and internal mechanisms of the washer can
result. If the washer was exposed to freezing temperatures
prior to installation, allow it to stand at room temperature
for several hours before use and check for leaks prior
to operation.
• For optimal wash performance, the hot water temperature
should be set at 120°-135°F (48-57°C) and the cold water
at 60°F (t5°C).

2. Connect the water supply hoses to the HOT and
COLD water faucets tightly by hand and then tighten
another 2/3 turn with pliers.
3. Always run a gallon or two of water through each
inlet hose to flush dirt, scale and other debris out
of the water lines. Doing so will help prevent future
problems with clogged filter screens, and will also
allow you to verify which water line is hot and which
is cold.

WARNING: Do not overtighten the hoses. Overtightening
can damage the valves resulting in leaking and property
damage.
4. Attach the (red) hot water line to the hot water inlet on
the back of the washer. Attach the (blue) cold water line
to the cold water inlet on the back of the washer.
Tighten the fittings securely.
NOTE: When installing the hoses onto the water
inlet valves, be careful not to cross-thread the hose
fittings. DO NOT overtighten the hoses; this could cause
damage to internal components, the valve or the hose
gasket. Overtightening could result in property damage
from leaks.
