WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be pro-
duced in a hot water system that has not been used
for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been
used for such a period and before using the washer,
turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas.
THIS GAS IS FLAMMABLE, DO NOT SMOKE OR
USE AN OPEN FLAME DURING THIS TIME.
Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch
(19.05mm) female garden hose couplings.
DO NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CONNEC-
TIONS.
NOTE:
Water supply faucets should be readily accessible
to permit turning them off when the washer is not
being used.
WATER TEMPERATURE
Cold
Recommended cold water temperature is 50 ~ 75
0 F,
10 ~ 23.8 0 C
Hot
Recommended hot water temperature is 135 ~
145
0 F, 57 ~ 62.7 0 C
Warm
Mixture of hot and cold water. (Warm water temper-
ature is dependent upon the water temperature and
the pressure of both the hot and cold water supply
lines.)
IMPORTANT: Owner should turn off water supply
whenever there will be an extended period of non-
use.
Water pressure
Do not operate the washer when the water pressure
is lower than 0.02 MPa or higher than .8 MPa. to
avoid damage of the inlet system.
Risers
Risers (or air cushions) may have to be installed if
the pipes knock or pound when flow of water stops.
The risers are more efficient when installed as close
as possible to the water supply faucets, see illustra-
tion below.
