A. Coupling
B. Washer
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.
A. Cold water inlet valve
B. Hot water inlet valve
1. Attach the hot water hose to the bottom inlet valve.
NOTE: Attaching the hot water coupling first makes it easier
to tighten connection with pliers.
2. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
Tighten the couplings with an additional two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants 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 bucket, 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 connected to the hot water faucet and that the
cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the
valve. Damage to the valves can result.

Attach the cold water hose to the top inlet valve.
Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the washer.
Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on the
valve. 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.
If you connect only one water hose, you must cap off the
remaining water inlet port.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
wear, or leaks are found.
