Installation instruction
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose
using the «U» piece supplied. Place the drain
hose into your standpipe, which should have
an internal diameter of approximately 38mm
thus ensuring there is an air break between the
drain hose and standpipe.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that
the top of the standpipe is no more than 90 cm
(35.4'') and no less than 60 cm (23.6'') above
floor level.
The drain hose may be extended to a
maximum of 4 metres. An additional drain hose
and joining piece is available from your local
Service Force Centre. The joining piece must
have an internal diameter of 18mm.

Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly
or soft material, insert a rigid support base
under the feet to prevent noise, vibration or
