An additional drain hose and joining piece is

available from your local Service Force Centre.

The joining piece must have an internal

diameer of 18mm.

If your drain hose looks

like this (see below) you

do not require the «U»

piece. Just push the

hose firmly into the

standpipe.

2. Onto a sink outlet spigot.
If the outlet spigot has not been used before,

remove any blanking plug that may be in place.

Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure

with a clip, ensure a loop is formed in the drain

hose (see diagram) to prevent waste from the

sink entering the washing machine.
Important!
Before connecting the machine to new

pipework or to pipework that has not been

used for some time, run off a reasonable

amount of water to flush out any debris that

may have collected in the pipes.
Levelling
Level the washing machine by raising or

lowering the feet. The feet may be tight to

adjust as they incorporate a self locking nut,

but the machine MUST be level and stable.

Loop

Any necessary

adjustment can be

made with a spanner.

Accurate levelling

prevents vibration,

noise and

displacement of the

machine during operation.

Some vibration is inevitable, especially if

mounted on a wooden floor.

Sprung wooden floors are particularly

susceptible to vibration. For advice, consult a

builder. If possible, always place the machine

on a solid floor.
Special conditions
If the floor is carpeted or covered with crumbly

or soft material, insert a rigid support base

under the feet to prevent noise, vibration or

displacement. The base should protrude a few

centimetres beyond the edges of the machine.

WARNING!

The machine should NOT be placed on deep

pile carpeting.
NOTE
Please ensure that when the appliance is

installed it is easily accessible for the engineer

in the event of a breakdown.
In the interest of the environment
Washing machines should be connected to the

FOUL drainage system, the water will then be

taken to a sewage works for treatment before

being discharged safely into a river. It is

essential that these appliances are not

connected to the surface water drainage

system as this water is discharged directly into

a river or stream and may cause pollution.
