CONNECT INLET HOSES

Washer must be connected to water faucets with new inlet
hoses with flat washers (not provided). Do not use old hoses.
NOTE: Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing
to inlet valves. If you are only connecting to a cold water
faucet, you must use a Y-adapter (provided).
If you have a hot water faucet, go to step 8a.
If you have only a cold water faucet, go to step 8b.
8a.
Connect inlet hoses to water 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.
8b.
Connect inlet hoses to
"Y" connector
Attach the brass female end of the "Y" connector to the cold
water faucet. Use pliers to tighten couplings an additional
two-thirds turn. One end of the long hose has a wire mesh
strainer inside the coupling. Attach this end to the "Y"
connector. Attach washer cold inlet hose to other side of
"Y" connector. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated
on connector. Using pliers, tighten the couplings an additional
two-thirds turn.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten or use tape or sealants
on valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage
can result.

Clear water lines
Run water for a few seconds through hoses into a laundry tub,
drainpipe, or bucket to avoid clogs. Water should run until clear.
Make note of which hose is connected to hot water to help in
attaching hoses to washer correctly.
10.
Connect inlet hoses to washer
Attach hot water hose to hot water inlet valve marked with a
red ring. Screw coupling by hand until it is snug. Use pliers to
tighten couplings an additional two-thirds turn. Repeat with
cold water inlet valve.
IMPORTANT: To reduce risk of hose failure, replace the hoses
every 5 years. Record hose installation or replacement dates
for future reference.
Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,
n
wear, or leaks are found.
11.
Check for leaks
Turn on water faucets to check for leaks. A small amount of
water may enter washer. It will drain later.
