Hand tight only, fully screw down the top housing.
Orient the bottom inlet and outlet under the sink as desired, then pull down on the air gap while tightening the bottom nut clockwise. Do not over tighten.
Connecting Tubing:
Connect the dishwasher drain hose to the 5/8 inch inlet port using a hose clamp.
Connect the air gap drain hose to the 7/8 inch outlet port using a hose clamp.
To make tubing connections from the dishwasher, connect three lengths of 5/8 inch hose to the inlet ports using clamps. Clamp the other end of the hoses to the tubing from the dishwasher.

Note: It is important to use 7/8 inch hose for the air gap drain and 5/8 inch hose for the dishwasher drain. Avoid any low spots in the hose.
