What is the siphon tube for? Can I run the washer without it?

That's so you can fill the soap reservoir and have it mix it in to your high pressure line.

the tube is for adding a washing/cleaning solution for your car or fence. You don't need to use it, but wow is it a nice option.

Yes it can be run without it. It is used for siphoning clean products, for pre-treating heavy soiled areas.

There seems to be an accessory, Geberit pn 249.801.00.1, which can be used to add a washlet to an already installed carrier. The product page on Geberit's website (http://www.geberit.us/catalog/catalogs.php?PartNum=249.801.00.1) suggests to have a separate line on new installations, and that's what I had my plumber do.

Its fairly simple to use. Using gravity, you raise the smaller tube/plunger and fill tube with liquid and then depress the same smaller tube and it creates a siphon. It may take a couple of pumps depending on how long the tubing is and what not. I suggest you get a pinch valve to control/stop the flow of fluid. It can be a messy situation sometimes. Mahalos

i really dont know, its a really odd washer, probably a gimmick to get to buy a special washer at a inflated price from them. what i did was grind off the metal part to make it flat, then a normal washer works just fine, even if you grind it off, it can still be removed with a socket wrench, your just grinding off the screwdriver part....

I have this item and would not trust in washer. I believe the tray would be too large, unless you ran it by itself.They are not marked "dw safe".

I haven't done this, but my opinion is if you have a connector like your washer hose it may work. Something to look at. This is all I can tell you.

I really don't know but a plumber might know of an adapter that is available to connect to your washer. However, I don't recommend this faucet. I have reviewed this faucet previously. I have two that were installed by a plumber and neither one works properly. For example, my plumber could not get the sink stopper to work on either of my bathroom sinks. Also, it's impossible to make small adjustments with this faucet. Very frustrating. Strongly not recommend this faucet.

Yes, you can just siphon with the tube without using the faucet attachment, then attach it to fill from the sink.

The idea is that it makes it easier to hook the hose to the washer. Instead of screwing the hose connector onto the washer, you screw one connected to the washr and one to the hose so it connects them easily. It was worth it.

It is a lubricant for "O" rings and seals. It should keep the hose washer softer longer; but importantly, it will lube the washer and fitting threads so the hose connection will tighten better, reduce washer galling, and therefore reduce/eliminate leaks.

I'm not sure of the question. I used the system right out of the box. I did buy some washing fluids (one for concrete and one for car wash/wax) at my local hardware store. Nothing was needed for the washer itself.

Please note that the pump is really just to start the siphon. This will probably only work if it is downhill all the way to the sewer. We use it for a rain barrel so we never looked into longer hoses.

I'm using one of these with the suction attachment shortened and it works well. Ideally I would like to attach a hose to drain into another container rather than filter through the bag and use it while doing partial water changes, but it is working quite well for the price as is after I cut the teeth down most of the way on the bell like suction attachment for the bottom.

Don't most vehicles come with an "anti-siphon" feature? I wouldn't chance trying to put the brass end down into my car gas tank. I've used it on a riding mower but the gas tank didn't have a long neck to thread it down. Not to mention I could see what I was doing the entire time.

We haven't tried the washer as I don't want the wood shavings in my machine. Have used it with garden hose as well as in a laundry tub. works fine.

you'd have to use something to shim it with, like a washer. I'd look for another solution.

I think that you may use a Y-connector--generally, those are intended for two garden hoses for homes. Such a Y-connector would have a valve for each side (H/C). You may need to attach small hoses to the outlets in order to attach the Y-connector--perhaps conventional washing machine hoses.. People with other models have mentioned this solution, anyway.
