Laundry tub drain or standpipe drain
Connect the drain hose form to the corrugated drain hose.
To keep drain water from going back into the washer:
[] Use the drain hose form, and do not force excess drain hose
into standpipe. Hose should be secure, but loose enough to
provide a gap for air.
[] Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.
Floor drain
You may need additional parts. See Floor drain under "Tools
and Parts."

on the floor.
