Fitting the inlet/outlet hoses
CONNECT ADAPTOR ELBOWS TO INLET/OUTLET HOSES
To avoid cross-threading
we recommend fitting the adaptors elbows
to the hoses first. For some installations this may not be possible.
Fit the hose gaskets into the ends of the inlet/outlet hoses.
Screw the adaptor elbows to the inlet and outlet hoses, taking care not to
cross thread. Adaptor elbows are pre-fitted with a single ‘O’ ring to the
outer groove.
It is important
that the inlet valve on the pipework is connected to
the inlet on the water softener and the outlet valve on the pipework is
connected to the outlet valve on the softener. Inlet and outlet are written
on the valve connections.
In order to prevent connecting the water softener incorrectly,
we recommend fitting each hose separately.

location (pre-fitted)
Spare ‘O’ rings are supplied only
if required.
CONNECTING THE HOSE TO THE INLET VALVE
Connect the hose to the inlet valve on the pipework. Insert the other end of the hose with the adaptor elbow into the
inlet valve on the water softener. Push the adaptor elbow into the valve inlet as far as it will go. Secure with adaptor
clip as below.
CONNECTING THE HOSE TO THE OUTLET VALVE
Connect the hose to the outlet valve on the pipework. Remove the plastic plug from the outlet connection on the
water softener, if present. Insert the other end of the hose with the adaptor elbow into the outlet valve on the water
softener. Push the adaptor elbow into the valve outlet as far as it will go. Secure with adaptor clip as below.
SECURE THE ADAPTOR ELBOW
Snap the two large adaptor clips into place,from the top down
Be sure they snap firmly into place so that the adaptors will not pull out. Pull on the adaptors to ensure a tight fit
has been achieved.
