Helpful Tip: Push up on front of dishwasher to raise dishwasher off the ground to adjust front legs. With some installations, it may be easier to adjust the front leg using the 3/16” hex head socket or adjustable wrench.

1 Slide nut and ferrule onto tubing

Nut

Ferrule

Copper tubing only: Slide nut then ferrule onto copper tubing about 1” (2.5 cm).

NOTE: To avoid vibration during operation, route the water supply line so that it does not touch the dishwasher base, frame or motor.

2 Connect water supply using copper or flexible line

Copper tubing only: Put the tubing into the 90° elbow fitting as far as it will go (the copper tubing bends and kinks easily). Slide the nut and ferrule forward and start the nut onto the elbow threads.

Flexible braided connection: Secure nut to elbow using 5/8” open ended wrench or adjustable wrench.

NOTE: Do not use Teflon® tape with compression fittings.

3 Tighten copper or braided tubing connection

Hold the 90° elbow fitting still with one adjustable wrench and tighten the nut with second adjustable wrench.

Helpful Tip: Use a 5/8” open ended wrench for easier access to tighten connection.
