To connect the purified water supply:
1.
Make certain the purified water supply piping has been thoroughly flushed
prior to connecting it to the washer.
2.
Make the necessary plumbing connections to properly connect the purified
water supply to the washer.
NOTE: If the purified water source is a carboy, complete steps 3 and 4.
3.
Connect the purified water source through either the top or the bottom of the
carboy, as illustrated in the following figures. If the purified water supply
feeds directly from the carboy top, make certain the hose is submerged under
the water line. Attach a weight to the end of the tubing to keep it from
floating on top of the water and possibly allowing air into the system.
4.
Make certain the top of the carboy is vented to permit proper flow from the
carboy to the washer. Make certain that all of the connections on the purified
water system are air tight. The pump must not pull air instead of water. Make
certain the supply hose is not crimped.
