3.
Check the size of the sink’s drain hose connector. If needed, cut the drain hose so its end
fi ts onto the sink connector (½ in., ¾ in. or 1 in. - as shown in Figure 11 below). If the end
of the drain hose does not fi t onto the drain hose connector of the sink, use an adaptor
purchasable at a plumbing/hardware supply store.
4.
Slide a hose clamp over the end of the drain hose. Attach the drain hose to the sink
connector, slide the hose clamp to the end of the hose, and then tighten the hose clamp.
Note : You must use a hose clamp. Failure to do so may cause water leakage.
5 .
If there is no air gap, make sure to hang the middle of the drain hose well above the sink
cabinet base to prevent backfl ow (see Figure 12 below).
Be careful when cutting off the end of the drain hose as there is a risk of injury. Clean
around the sink’s drain connection so that it does not damage the hose. Check for any
foreign items in the drain hose and remove them.
