Water Connections
All inlet connections to the machine are to be fitted with manual shut-off valves and filters,
to facilitate installation and servicing.
NOTE: The inlet filter screens are provided inside the machine's connection fittings.
Water pipes and hoses should be flushed clean before installation. After installation, hoses
should hang in gentle arcs.
The machine is equipped with two water inlet fittings, one for hot water and one for cold.
The fittings on the back of the machine are metric (DN20) threads, onto which only one end
of the included fill hoses (the end with the "elbow" fitting, also marked with a label that reads
"Machine End") can be threaded. The other end of each fill hose is fitted with a standard
"female garden hose" threaded fitting that will easily assemble to the supply spigot in your
laundry.
Hoses need only be HAND TIGHTENED when properly assembled.
If hoses are difficult to assemble, or leak after assembly, check that the hoses have been
assembled in the proper orientation and have a garden-hose washer in each swivel fitting.
Your water heater should supply hot water at a minimum temperature of 120
degrees Fahrenheit (49 degrees Celsius) and a maximum of 170 degrees
Fahrenheit (77 degrees Celsius).
The required water pressure is as follows:
• min:
15 PSI (100 kPa)
• max:
90 PSI (600 kPa)
recommended: 30-90 PSI (200-600 kPa)
