Positioning Your new Tricity Bendix washing machine has been designed to be permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it may be connected to suitable existing taps, with the drain hose discharging into the sink.
Water drainage This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed into your home's water supply and drainage system. The appliance drain hose should hook (use the plastic “U-piece” supplied) into a standpipe with an internal diameter of approximately 38mm (see diagram) thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.
Levelling Level the washing machine by loosening or tightening the feet. Once in the right position fix the feet by pushing the nuts against the base of the case. Accurate levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement of the machine during operation. After levelling the machine, secure the feet by tightening the ring nuts with the aid of a screwdriver.
The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug. A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Tricity Bendix Service Centre. WARNING: a cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.
