Connections should be supplied by a hot and a cold water line of at least the sizes shown in the Water Supply Line Sizing table. Installation of additional machines will require proportionately larger water lines. See table.

To connect water service to machine with rubber hoses, use the following procedure:

1.Before installing hoses, flush the water system for at least two minutes.

2.Check filters in the washer-extractor’s inlet hoses for proper fit and cleanliness before connecting.

3.Hang the hoses in a large loop; do not allow them to kink.

Installation

If additional hose lengths are needed, use flexible hoses with screen filters. Each hose should have a screen filter installed to keep rust and other foreign particles out of the water inlet valves.

Pressure of 30 – 85 psi (2 – 5.7 bar) provides best performance. Although the washer- extractor will function properly at lower pressures, increased fill times will occur.

Suitable air cushions should be installed in supply lines to prevent “hammering.” If the water pressure is above 60 psi, flexible copper tubing should be used in place of rubber hoses.
