Risers (or air cushions) may have to be installed if the pipes knock or pound when flow of water stops. The risers are more efficient when installed as close as possible to the water supply faucets. Refer to Figure 17.

Installation
Drain FacilitiesIMPORTANT: The drain hose installation is a very important factor in the washer installation. If care is not taken when the drain hose is installed, a siphoning action can be started which will cause water to be siphoned from the washer during the cycle.
End of drain hose should never be in water as siphoning action can be started that will cause water to be siphoned back into the washer.
The curved end of drain hose MUST be installed even with or above the height of the cabinet top of the washer to prevent siphoning (refer to Figure 18). If the drain facility is lower than the cabinet top, a siphon break kit, Part No. 562P3, must be installed in the drain hose to prevent this siphoning action and drain hose MUST be cut to fit the washer installation (refer to Figure 7). Use one No. 25863 Hose Coupling to splice hose. The No. 562P3 Siphon Break Kit and No. 25863 Hose Coupling are available as optional equipment at extra cost.
The standpipe or drain receptacle must be capable of handling a minimum of 3,8 cm
