Water distribution system troubleshooting
The water distribution system consists of two assemblies:
• Water inlet assembly

– Float valve assembly
• Hose and valve assembly
– Spray bar assembly
– Valve assembly
– Connection hose

Water inlet hose is loose at supply hose or inlet hose is loose at bulkhead
fitting.
Tighten connections and/or replace hose washers.
Water overflows from reservoir or
