Trim Installation

Note: To achieve desired handle rotational alignment, the cartridge MUST be tightened in a clockwise rotation
only.

The use of petroleum base plumbers putty on our products will nullify the warranty. We recommend the use of

clear silicone sealing materials.

(Cartridge Bonnet factory torque is 14-16 ft-lbs.)

1. Attach handle trim to valve. When possible, any adjustments for rotational alignment should be made to the
valve body - not to the cartridge. (Note: Allow minimum spacing between handles and escutcheon/bonnet to
prevent damage to the surface finish.) Secure handles into place with setscrew. (See Fig. 3)

2. Apply plumbers tape to spout nipple and install into base of spout. Slide spout nipple into quick connect
deck flange (re-grease if necessary). Make sure spout is flush with deck and secure into place with setscrew.
(See Fig. 3)

3. Turn on water supply, check for leaks and make any final adjustments required.
