The water supply should be taken from a 15mm rising main at a pressure of
between 0.1 and 0.8 MPa and should be fitted with a stopcock to isolate the
supply during servicing. A 15mm double backcheck valve, with inspection port,
should be fitted to the flexible hose.
The outlet should be fitted with BSP connections and must be positioned within
1.5m of the machine to ensure correct fitting of the hose. If possible, the outlet
should be located behind the machine to prevent misuse.
Before connecting the machine hose to the mains outlet, flush the system, via
the stopcock, to remove any impurities that may have accumulated in the mains
supply pipe.
Connect the machine hose to the mains outlet using the seals supplied and
ensure that all fittings are tight. Turn on the water supply at the stopcock and
check for leaks, both behind and inside the machine. The water supply should be
fitted with the appropriate water blocker
IF THE EQUIPMENT WAS SUPPLIED WITH A MAINS WATER HOSE, THIS
HOSE SHOULD BE USED. DO NOT USE A HOSE FROM A PREVIOUSLY
INSTALLED PRODUCT EVEN IF IT WOULD FIT. TO DO SO COULD LEAD
TO A HEALTH HAZZARD.
