Proper connection of the drain hose will help protect your floors
from damage due to water leakage. To prevent the drain hose
from coming off or leaking, it must be installed according to the
following instructions.
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper installation, this procedure must
be followed exactly.
For standpipe or laundry tub drain systems:
1. Check the drain hose to see that it is the proper length.
2. Install the U-shaped hose form to end of the drain hose to
create a hook-shaped end as shown.
A B
A. Snap either end of the U-shaped hose form to the drain hose at the
point where the corrugation begins.
B. Bend drain hose over the form and snap into place.

Put hooked end of drain hose into laundry tub or standpipe.
To prevent drain water from going back into the washer:
• Do not straighten hooked end of drain hose. Do not force
excess drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure,
but loose enough to provide a gap of air.
NOTE: To prevent siphoning, do not seal the drain hose to the
standpipe.
• Do not lay excess drain hose in bottom of laundry tub.
• For floor drain installation, see kit number required under
"Tools and Parts."
There are two hoses provided with the machine. The hot water
hose is indicated with a red stripe running the length of the hose.
Insert new flat washers (supplied) into the straight hose fitting of
each inlet hose. Firmly seat the washers in the couplings.

Connect the inlet hoses to the water faucets
Make sure the washer basket is empty.
1. Attach the hose with the red stripe to the hot water faucet.
Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
2. Attach the other hose to the cold water faucet. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
3. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Clear the water lines
Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a bucket or
laundry tub, to get rid of particles in the water lines that might
clog the inlet filter washers. The water should be clean, especially
where the system is new or has been left unused for a length of
time.
Connect the inlet hoses to the washer
1. Insert the filter washer (supplied) into the coupling of the hose
fitting elbow, before connecting the water inlet hose to the
valve on the back of the washer.

Attach the hose with the red stripe to the HOT (right) inlet
valve on the washer. Screw on coupling by hand until it is
seated on the washer. Make sure the hose connection is
tight.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Attach the other hose to the COLD water (left) inlet valve.
Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
Make sure the hose connection is tight.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result.
Check for leaks
Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks. A small amount of
water might enter the washer. You will drain this later.
NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates for
future reference.
• Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.
