PLUMBING (Water Inlet)

Included in the accessories supplied with this machine are 2 inlet hoses and 4 rubber washers. The straight end of these hoses should be connected to the supply fig. 1.

The 90° angled end of these hoses should be connected to the inlet valves on the back of the machine, using one of the washers to make a water tight seal on each connection. The couplings should be tightened by hand, a tool should only be used if a leak occurs. Do not use excessive force (see M, fig. 1).

Connection to the water mains

Water pressure must range within the values indicated on the data plate on the rear of your washer-dryer. If the water pipes are new or left unused, then before connecting the machine run the water until clear to remove debris. Connect the inlet hose to a cold water tap having a

¾“ BSP thread. Ensure that the rubber sealing washer-dryers are fitted at each end of the inlet hose, with the fitter washer-dryer at the tap end.

Connect the inlet hose to the threaded connector on the machine rear.

The inlet valves are color coded:

Red = Hot

White = Cold

It is possible to run the machine on a single faucet with cold water only, but water must be supplied to each inlet valve. The “Y“ connector allows a single water source to be split into the two inlets at the rear of the appliance (see fig. 2).The “Y” connector is part of the faucet available kit - available as an accessory from Equator Parts 1-888-483-9627.

Note: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on the hoses for future reference.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.

PLUMBING (Water Out)

You should carefully position the drain hose to avoid kinks
and ensure proper drainage of the water.
The outlet end of the drain hose must be at least 25” (62 cm)
above the base of the machine. At this point it is possible for
the water to be discharged into a sink or drain pipe, but an air
break must be available at this 24” height to prevent the machine
from syphoning (see fig. aside).	25”
No more than 6” of the drain hose should be inserted in the
drain pipe.	2
IMPORTANT
make sure that the drain hose is not kinked and the water flow
has not been restricted.
