The water supply must come from a water main. NEVER use hot water or water from pools,
lakes, etc. Before connecting the garden hose:

 Run water hose with motor in OFF position until a steady stream of water appears to
clean any
debris from the hose.
 Inspect the screen in the water intake.

 If the screen is dirty, clean it before connecting the garden hose to the machine.
 With the hose faucet turned completely off, attach the end of the garden hose to
