the use of clear silicone sealing materials. Recommended deck thru hole Ø 1.38"

Spout base. Align SPOUT (1) and secure into place with GASKET (2), mounting BRACKET (6) and NUT (5).
See Figure 1.
2.Place flange NUT (1) and fiber WASHER (2) onto valve BODY (3). Insert valve BODY (3) through sink hole
from underside of sink. Valve BODY (3) should extend: 2-7/8” above mounting surface. If necessary adjust
lower flange NUT (1). Place fiber WASHER (2a) and flange NUT (1a) onto upper position of valve BODY (3).
Set valve BODIES (3,3A) so that their outlets are facing towards the center of the sink and tighten upper
flange NUT (1a). See Figure 2.
3.Connect HOSE (4) to outlet of each valve BODY (3,3a). (Red to HOT an Blue to COLD). Hand tighten and
secure each HOSE (4) with a wrench 1/4 turn. See Figure 2.
4. Connect hot/cold water supply to appropriate 1/2” NPSM valve BODY (5), utilizing one of the three fol-
lowing types
of risers. Supply risers not included. See Figure 3.
a. 1/2” IPS flexible riser: discard rubber nosecone WASHER (11), friction WASHER (12) and coupling NUT
(13).
b. 3/8” or 1/2” OD bullnose riser: utilize friction WASHER (12) and coupling NUT (13).
c. 1/2” copper riser: utilize rubber nosecone WASHER (11), friction WASHER (12) and coupling NUT (13).
5. Attach ESCUTCHEON (14), BONNET (15) and HANDLE (16). Any adjustments for rotational alignment
must be made to the valve body - not to the cartridge. (Note: Allow minimum spacing between HANDLE
(16) and BONNET (15) to prevent damage to the surface finish.) Secure HANDLE (16) into place with
setscrews. Remove adhesive backing from BUTTON (16a), align and press onto HANDLE (16). See Figure

approximately 1" from end of ROD (26), with SCREW (28). Insert ball ROD (29) into the drain's rod open-
ing, secure with ball rod NUT (30). Adjust the rise of the plunger and CLIP (31) into place. Adjust ball ROD
(29) and pop-up ROD (26) so drain will open and close properly. See Figure 6.

for leaks and make any final adjustments required. Re-attach AERATOR (32) to the spout.
