Trim Installation
Note: To achieve desired handle rotational alignment, the cartridge MUST be tightened in a clock-
wise 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.)
4. 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
5. 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
6. Turn on water supply, check for leaks and make any final adjustments required.
