6. Place drain hose in standpipe
Place hose into standpipe (shown in picture) or over side of
laundry tub.
IMPORTANT: 4.5" (114 mm) of drain hose should be inside
standpipe; do not force excess hose into standpipe or lay on
bottom of laundry tub. Drain hose form must be used.
Connect Inlet Hoses
IMPORTANT: To avoid leaks, check that your water inlet hoses
have flat washers at both ends. Washer must be connected to
water faucets with new inlet hoses with flat washers (not
provided). Do not use old hoses. Do not use hoses without
washers.
7. Insert new flat washers
8. Connect inlet hoses to water faucets
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on
valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage can
result.
Attach the hose labeled hot to hot water faucet. Screw on
coupling by hand until it is seated on washer. Use adjustable
pliers to tighten couplings an additional two-thirds turn.
Repeat this step with the hose labeled cold for the cold water
faucet. Both hoses must be connected for washer to work
properly.
HELPFUL TIP: Make note of which hose is connected to hot
water to help in attaching hoses to washer correctly. In most
standard configurations, hoses will cross over each other
when attached correctly.
9. Clear water lines
Run water for a few seconds through hoses into a laundry
tub, drainpipe, or bucket to avoid clogs. Water should run until
clear.
10. Connect inlet hoses to washer
IMPORTANT: To reduce risk of hose failure, replace the
hoses every 5 years. Record hose installation or replacement
dates for future reference.
� Do not overtighten hose or use tape or sealants on the
valve. Damage to the valves can result.
� Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks,
cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
Attach hot water hose to hot water inlet valve. Screw
coupling by hand until it is snug. Use adjustable pliers to
tighten couplings an additional two-thirds turn. Repeat with
cold water inlet valve.
11. Check for leaks
Slowly turn on water faucets to check for leaks. A small
amount of water may enter washer. It will drain later.
