CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE
See Figures 8 - 10.
CAUTION:
Always observe all local regulations when connnecting
hoses to the water main. Some areas have restrictions
against connecting directly to public drinking water sup-
ply to prevent the feedback of chemicals into the drinking
water supply. Direct connection through a receiver tank
or backflow preventer is usually permitted.
The water supply must come from a water main. NEVER use
hot water or water from pools, lakes, etc. Before connecting
the garden hose:

Uncoil the garden hose.
NOTE: There must be a minimum of 10 feet of unrestricted
garden hose between the water intake and the garden hose
faucet or shut off valve (such as a “Y” shut off connector).
 Run water through the garden hose for 30 seconds to clean
any debris from the hose.
To connect the garden hose to the machine through G-Clean
detergent injector:

Loosen bracket screws and remove bracket.
 Rotate the G-Clean detergent injector counterclockwise to
loosen and remove.
 Disassemble injector as described in the Using the Deter-
gent Injector section of the manual. Ensure that the G-Clean
detergent injector screen is not damaged or clogged. Clean
or replace as needed.
 Inspect the filter screen in the water intake.
 If the screen is damaged, do not use the machine until
the screen has been replaced.
 If the screen is dirty, clean it before connecting the garden
hose to the machine.
 Reassemble injector, return it to unit, and replace bracket.
 With the garden hose faucet turned completely off, attach
the end of the garden hose to the G-Clean detergent injec-
tor. Tighten by hand. 
