5.4.2 Remote Fill/Drain Connections
The remote fill/drain line and the wax drain outlet sit above the carbon filter in the reagent cabinet
(see Figure 52). A protective flap covers the outlets. The wax waste line is heated to ensure that
the wax does not solidify during the drain.

Before draining a wax station, open the upper reagent cabinet door, slide back the fill/drain flap
then fit the wax waste hose to the wax waste line (right connection in Figure 52). 
Ensure the wax waste hose drains into a suitable container.
Ensure the hose remains out of the drained wax so that wax can’t solidify on the end of hose.

Before filling or draining reagent bottles, connect the remote fill/drain hose (see Figure 53) to
the remote fill/drain line (left connection in Figure 53). The hose has a push-fit coupling that
ensures a secure connection to the line.
