Don’t forget to remove the knockout or plug from the
disposer tting.
ASKO provides a 7/8˝ (22 mm) diameter corrugated
drain hose which is connected to the back of the unit
to form a high loop.
Do not use any fittings anywhere in the drain
line that are less than 7/8˝ (22 mm) OD.
The access hole for the drain line should be 1-5/8˝ (41
mm)- 2˝ (50mm) max.
The end of the drain line
is 1/2˝ (12 mm), but it is
adjustable to 7/8˝, 3/4˝,
5/8˝ (22mm, 19 mm, and
16 mm). If the drain connection is larger than
1/2˝ (12 mm), you can easily cut the drain line to t
the connection.
The illustrations to the right show three ways to
connect the drain supply line.
The high loop is necessary for
proper draining. Therefore, all
ASKO dishwashers have the
drain hoses attached to the drain
pump and fastened to the top
back of the unit, as illustrated. This gives the drain
hose an automatic high loop, which is necessary for
proper draining. The drain hose is fastened at the
best high loop height.
• Failure to provide the proper drain connection
height (minimum of 20˝ (508 mm) above the
bottom of the dishwasher base) or a 20˝ (508 mm)
high loop will result in improper drainage, which
will damage the machine.
• No part of the drain hose should be higher than
35˝ (889 mm) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
• The drain hose can be extended to a maximum
length of 10 feet (3048 mm). Joints and jointed
tubes, if any, must have a minimum 7/8˝ (22 mm)
OD.
• If the drain line is going to be connected to a waste
disposer, be sure to remove the knockout or plug
from the tting on the disposer before connecting
the drain line.
• Do not use ttings smaller than 7/8˝ (22 mm) OD;
otherwise the water may not drain properly.
