Push the drain hose onto the spigot
and secure with a clip. Ensure a loop is
formed in the drain hose (see diagram)
to prevent waste from the sink entering
the washing machine.
Important!
Before connecting the machine to new
pipework or to pipework that has not
been used for some time, run off a
reasonable amount of water to flush
out any debris that may have collected
in the pipes.
In the interest of the environment
Washing machines should be
connected to the FOUL drainage
system, the water will then be taken to
a sewage works for treatment before
