PORTABLE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Drain System
The washer must drain into a sink or laundry tub with a carry-
away capacity of 7 gal. (26.6 L) per minute (for portable 
installations). The top of the tub must be at least 27" (68.6 cm) 
above floor and no higher than 48" (121.9 cm) from the bottom of 
the washer.
Connect Fill-And-Drain Hose
Proper connection of the fill-and-drain hose will protect your 
floors from damage due to water leakage.
Insert new flat washer (supplied) into the end of the inlet hose. 
Firmly seat the washer in the coupling.
Connect Fill Hose
Attach the fill-and-drain hose to the cold water (left) inlet valve. 
Tighten coupling by hand. Use pliers to make an additional two-
thirds turn. 
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the valves can result. 
Hot water (right) inlet valve is capped. Leave this valve capped.
Connect Drain Hose
To prevent the fill-and-drain hose from leaking, it must be 
installed according to the following instructions.
IMPORTANT: To ensure proper installation, this procedure must 
be followed exactly.
1. Wet inside end of the fill-and-drain hose with tap water.
IMPORTANT: Do not use any lubricant other than water.
2. Squeeze ears of double-wire clamp with pliers to open. Place 
clamp over the straight end of the drain hose 
¼" (6 mm) from the end. Twist hose back and forth while 
pushing down onto drain connector at the bottom of the 
washer. Continue until hose contacts the cabinet.
3. Place clamp over area marked “CLAMP.” Release clamp.
Attach Faucet Adapter Kit
Proper connection of your faucet adapter kit will allow hot and 
cold water to enter your washer properly. It also helps prevent 
water damage due to leaks.
Attach the faucet adapter kit from the parts bag to your faucet. A 
standard faucet adapter and washer are supplied. Customized 
adapters are available from traditional plumbing supply sources.
