DRAIN CONNECTIONS

ASKO provides a 7/8" (22 mm) diameter corrugated drain

hose which is connected to the back of the unit to form

a high loop. If additional drain hose is needed, please

purchase an ASKO drain hose extension kit with a 7/8"

(22mm) copper tube.

NOTE:

Do not use any fittings anywhere in the drain

line that are less than 7/8" (22 mm) ID.

The access hole for the drain line should be 1-5/8" (41 mm)-

2" (50mm) max.

The end of the drain line

is 1/2" (12 mm), but it is

adjustable to 7/8", 3/4",

5 / 8 " ( 2 2 m m , 1 9 m m ,

and 16 mm). If the drain connection is larger than

1/2" (12 mm), you can easily cut the drain line to fit the

connection.

The illustrations to the right show three ways to connect

the drain supply line.

THE HIGH LOOP

The high loop is necessary for

proper draining. Therefore, all ASKO

dishwashers have the drain hoses

attached to the drain pump and

fastened to the top back of the unit, as

illustrated. This gives the drain hose an automatic high

loop, which is necessary for proper draining. The drain

hose is fastened at the best high loop height.

To eliminate potential drain problems, simply leave

this hose in place.

DO NOT REMOVE THE HIGH LOOP!

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER:

♦ Failure to provide the proper drain connection height

(minimum of 20" (508 mm) above the bottom of the

dishwasher base) or a 20" (508 mm) high loop will

result in improper drainage, which will damage the

machine.

♦ No part of the drain hose should be higher than 35"

(889 mm) from the bottom of the dishwasher.

♦ The drain hose can be extended to a maximum length

of 10 feet (3048 mm). Joints and jointed tubes, if any,

must have a minimum 5/8" (16 mm) ID.

♦ If the drain line is going to be connected to a waste

disposer, be sure to remove the knockout or plug

from the fitting on the disposer before connecting

the drain line.

♦ Do not use fittings smaller than 5/8" (16 mm);

otherwise the water may not drain properly.

When the installation is ready, open the supply valve

and let the pressure act for a while. Then check that all

connections are tight and there are no leaks.

THREE WAYS TO INSTALL

DRAIN CONNECTIONS

A) Typical connection to sink plumbing before

trap (high loop drain)

B) Connection to air gap then to the trap

C) Connection to waste disposer with air gap

NOTE:

Don't forget to remove the knockout or plug from the

disposer fitting.
