4. Install the O-ring over the strainer threads.
5. Thread the strainer into the drain adapter.
Needle-nose pliers can be used to hold the drain
adapter from the top while tightening. Ensure that
the connection creates a watertight seal. The drain
adapter must be facing to the left.
Note:
Twisting the strainer instead of the drain
adapter can compromise the seal created by
the plumber's putty.
NOTICE
For the following steps, it is
recommended to use a heat gun
when manipulating the flexible drain hose. It is
beneficial to conservatively soften the material
before trying to make connections.
6.
Attach one end of the 3/4" flexible drain hose to
the 3/4" barbed drain adapter connection using the
supplied hose clamp. The supplied flexible drain is
13" long. If a longer drain hose is required, it must be
installer-supplied.
7. Place the drain basin back into the water dispenser
and reinstall the two screws.
8. Attach the other end to the p-trap drain adapter using
a hose clamp. The drain adapter is designed to be
glued into a 1-1/4" PVC pipe.
9. Connect the drain adapter into the waste drain pipe.
If the p-trap is located inside a sealed walled, it must
have permanently-glued joints. If the p-trap is in an
accessible location, a standard non-glued p-trap is
acceptable
Note:
Whichever installation method is used: it must
meet local standards and building codes.
10. Install the metal grate cover. Do not install the drip
tray since the unit is plumbed into the local waste
line.
