Your sink must have 3 holes on 4" centers at least 1 1/4" in diameter
To install your DISMASTER 2000


Read complete instructions before starting installation.

  1. Turn off the Hot & Cold water valves under your sink, (See Figure 1).  If you do not have shut off valves under your sink, you must shut off your water at your pump or meter.
  2. If you do not have Shut-off valves under your sink, we recommend you install them while making this installation.
  3. Remove your present water faucet from your sink; be sure to remove any old gaskets or plumbers putty used to seal your old faucet to your sink. (a)
  4. Align black rubber gasket around holes in sink, with valve handle to your left; slide inlet tubes, flexible hose connector and hose guide through holes in sink.  Align chrome cover with black rubber gasket, (Fig. 1).
  5. Slip washer then nut over inlet tube fittings and screw nut onto valve body, now place second washer and nut on hose guide and tighten both nuts securely to sink, (Fig. 1).
    DO NOT SPREAD INLET TUBES UNTIL NUTS ARE IN PLACE.

  1. Before attaching the DISHMASTER 2000 to the water lines, flush pipes of all chips and foreign matter by turning on the water momentarily, being careful not to spray water all over your kitchen.  Hold a towel over the end of the pipes or valve, or a pan or bucket could be used to catch the water while performing this operation.
  2. Slide the end of the hose assembly through the hose guide from above the sink and connect the brass fitting to the flexible hose connector under the sink.  Tighten securely.

Caution black hose must be free to move.  DO NOT loop hose around water supply lines or drainpipes.

  1. Connect the clear plastic detergent tube to the Copper Tube on the black hose (if it has been disconnected).  Connect the detergent tube to the tank with the quick connect fitting, (Fig. 1).
  2. We recommend attaching your water lines to the DISHMASTER with flexible faucet supply lines.  The inlet tube fitting is 1/2" IPS.  The second fitting on the supply line is determined by the size required for your shut off valves.
  3. Spread the inlet tubes slightly to allow connection of the cold water line.
  4. CAUTION: YOUR HOT WATER LINE MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE LONGEST INLET TUBE.
  5. Turn water on slowly and check all connections for any possible leaks.
  6. Place the detergent tank in a convenient location in your under sink cabinet.
  7. Avoid crimping or placing any objects on the detergent tube, as this will prevent the flow of detergent to your DISHMASTER 2000.

(a) A plumbers basin wrench is available at a nominal cost from hardware stores if required for the removal of your old faucet nuts under the sink. BACK
