Washer must be connected to water faucets with new inlet
hoses with flat washers (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 8c.
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.
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:

on valve when attaching to faucets or washer. Damage
can result.
