The drain hose may be extended to a maximum of 4
metres. An additional drain hose and joining piece is
available from your local Service Force Centre.
The joining piece must have an internal diameter of
18 mm.
If your drain hose looks like this (see below) you do
not require the “U” piece”. Just push the hose firmly
into the standpipe.
2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove
any blanking plug that may be in place.
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a
clip if required, ensure a loop is formed in the drain
hose (see diagram) to prevent waste from the sink
entering the appliance.
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.

locking nut, but the machine MUST be level and stable.
If necessary, check the setting with a spirit level.
After having levelled the machine, tighten the lock nuts.
Any necessary adjustment can be made with a spanner.
Accurate levelling prevents vibration, (see note on
positioning), noise and displacement of the machine
during operation.
Some vibration is inevitable, especially if mounted on a
wooden floor.
Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible to
vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.
In the interest of the environment
The appliances should be connected to the FOUL
drainage system, the water will then be taken to a
sewage works for treatment before being discharged
safely into a river.
It is essential that these appliances are not connected
to the surface water drainage system as this water is
discharged directly into a river or stream and may
cause pollution.
If you require any further advice please contact your
local water authority.
