Note:
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on the
hoses for future reference.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.
PLL!NBING
You should carefully position the drain hose to avoid kinks and
ensure proper d rainage of the water (fig. 2-3-4-5).
The outlet end of the drain hose must be at least 25" (62 cm)
above the base of the machine. At this point it is possible for
the water to be discharged into a sink or drain pipe, but an air
break must be available at this 25" height to prevent the machine
from syphoning (see fig. 2-3 aside).
No more than 6" of the drain hose should be inserted in the
drain pipe.
IMPORTANT
make sure that the drain hose is not kinked and the water flow
has not been restricted.

In RV installation needs a 1-1/2 inch (3.7 cm) diam.
standpipe with minimum carry away capacity of 7 gallons (31
liters) per minute or2" (5 cm) in home installation (fig.3- 4).
Floor Standpipe drain:
Top of standpipe must be at least 25 inches (62 cm) high and
no higher than 34 inches (86 cm) from the bottom of
washer (A) (fig. 3-4).
