Reason

The potential that the plastic inlet hose connections may deform or break as a result of material fatigue and/or over tightening of the clamps. A broken hose connection may lead to a hazardous situation of water leakage or water spray. The water leakage or water spray may result in a burn to the user and/or an inconvenience due to a procedural delay if the Washer Disinfector is taken out of service.
