CONNECT INLET HOSES
Washer must be connected to water faucets with new inlet
hoses with flat washers. Do not use old hoses.
NOTE: Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing
to inlet valves. For optimal performance, hot and cold water
must be supplied to the washer.
For floor drain installations, you will need to remove the drain
hose form from the end of the drain hose. You may need
additional parts with separate directions. See "Alternative
Parts".
9. Place drain hose in standpipe
faucets
Attach hose to hot water faucet. Screw on coupling by hand
until it is seated on washer. Use pliers to tighten couplings an
additional two-thirds turn. Repeat this step with second hose
for cold water faucet.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants on
valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage can result.
HELPFUL TIP: Make note of which hose is connected to hot
water to help in attaching hoses to washer correctly. In most
standard configurations, hoses will cross over each other
when attached correctly.
Place hose into standpipe (shown in picture) or over side of
laundry tub.
IMPORTANT: Only 4.5" (113 mm) of drain hose should be
inside standpipe; do not force excess hose into standpipe or
lay on bottom of laundry tub. Drain hose form must be used.
Run water for a few seconds through hoses into a laundry
tub, drainpipe, or bucket to prevent clogs. Water should run
until clear.
