Positioning

Your new Bendix washing machine has been designed to be permanently plumbed in to your home’s water supply and drainage system. However, if this is not possible, it may be connected to suitable existing taps, with the drain hose discharging into the sink.

The appliance has two inlet hoses, hot and cold, with female 3/4” BSP thread connectors. If this connection is not compatible with the plumbing of the existing installation, a variety of connectors are available from good hardware stores and plumbers merchants to suit most domestic plumbing. Any alterations to your existing plumbing must be carried out by a competent person, or qualified plumber.

Water inlet

The inlets on the back of the appliance are colour coded, blue for cold and red for hot.

Before connecting the hoses, be sure to fit the black washers supplied as per diagram.

If only a cold water supply is available, connect the two hoses to a cold water outlet by means of a ‘Y’ connection piece.

Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulation requirements.

The appliance must be given a separate cold water supply and not be connected to a mixer tap, a single outlet water heater or a booster pump. A minimum water pressure of 7psi is required for safe operation of the appliance.

If you cannot make the cold water connection direct from the rising mains, you may be able to operate the appliance from your cold water storage system.

There should be a minimum distance of 5.02m (16 1/2ft) between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the tank.

There will be sufficient pressure for the hot water supply from the hot water cylinder if the height between the appliance’s inlet and the bottom of the cold water storage cistern (not between the appliance and the hot water cylinder) is at least 2.74m (9ft).

Set the hoses correctly by loosening the ring nuts. After positioning the inlet hoses, be sure to tighten the ring nuts again to prevent leaks.
