Connection of the machine to the drain

This machine must be connected in accordance with the water supply regulations. Water byelaws
prohibit connection to a surface water drain.
Decide which plumbing option suits you best then follow the instructions below.
All machines are tested with water prior to leaving the factory so a small
amount of water may remain in the drum and drain hose.
Flooding could occur if any part of the installation is not completed correctly.
Option 1
Waste pipe connection (waste trap)
Fit the hooked end support to the outlet pipe. Position at least 800mm off the floor.
After removing the blanking plug or cutting the membrane from the waste system securely fix the outlet
pipe to the drainage system, using a hose clip.
Secure the hooked end support up to at least 800mm to avoid water being drawn back into the machine.
