suitable wall fixings. Replace the bracket and secure in place with four screws.
Slide the control box onto its wall bracket.

WATER SUPPLY

Connect the water supply pipe to the water inlet located on the top of the lid, and
secure using the supplied hose clips. Fit the other end of the supply pipe to a cold
water supply that incorporates a tap or shut off valve that can be used to regulate
the water flow to approximately 3 – 4 litres per minute. The water inlet is fitted with
a baffle to improve the distribution of water into the cylinder. This may cause minor
splashing on the surface of the lid; if this becomes severe, reduce water flow as
required. The maximum water pressure for the supply is 10 bar. Ensure that the
hose supplied with the machine is used and that an old hose is not reused.
PLEASE NOTE: these machines are fitted with an air-break to prevent back
syphonage into the mains supply. Some local authorities may nevertheless require
connection is made to a storage cistern rather than direct to the mains supply.
This applies to UK installations only. Overseas customers should install the
machine in accordance with local regulations.
If in doubt, check with your local authority

WASTE OUTLET CONNECTION

The peeler has two possible waste outlet locations. If it is required to change the
waste outlet location, remove both the existing waste outlet and the blanking plate
on the opposite side. Refit both the waste outlet and the blanking plate in their new
positions.
A flexible hose, supplied with the machine, can be fitted over the waste outlet to
direct the waste into a gully or intercepting tank. If required, secure with the hose
clip supplied. Longer lengths of flexible hose are available from IMC on request.
The waste outlet also incorporates a 2" BSP female thread for connection to
standard 54mm (2") waste pipe. DO NOT reduce the diameter of the waste pipe to
below 54mm. The length of the pipe should be kept to a minimum and the pipe
must have a fall of at least 1:15. Changes of direction should be made by swept
bends rather than elbows and cleaning eyes should be fitted where possible in
accordance with standard plumbing practice.
A trap is not necessary if the discharge is into a gully or an intercepting tank,
although a trap must be provided in the outlet pipe from the intercepting tank. If a
trap is required it should be made with 45° bends and not with a 'U' or 'P' bend or
with a bottle trap.
