Custom Fit Connections
NOTICE: If you determine the PEX supply
tubing for this faucet is too long and must
be shorter to create an acceptable
installation, be sure to read the instruc-
tions and plan ahead. When cutting the
supply tubing the installer accepts the
responsibility to do so in a way that allows
a leak-free joint to be created. Delta is not
responsible for tubing that is cut too short
or cut in a way that will not allow for a
leak-free joint.
For custom fit installations, you must use
RP50952 sleeves supplied with model and
nuts included on supply lines.
Tube cut must
be straight. See plastic sleeve installation
instructions found in RP50952 and included in
this document (page 11) for more information.
Secure metal nut (1) on faucet tube to supply
valve connection (2) and hand tighten, then
tighten an additional 2 turns with wrench. DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Repeat for other tube.
WARNING: Do not use pipe dope or other
sealants on water line connections.
Place bucket under faucet quick connect
fitting (1), open both supply valves (2) and
turn faucet valve on by operating handle (3)
for one minute.
Important: This flushes
away any debris that could cause
damage to internal components. When
complete, close both supply valves and turn
faucet valve off to shut off water flow.
Potential Problems and Remedies
l
Tubing is not cut perpendicular to the
axis of the tub: carefully make an
additional cut, being careful not to cut the
tube too short.
l
Tubing is cut too short: buy a coupling
union and a replacement supply line that
mate together from a store. The coupling
union end intended to connect to the
faucet must mate to the standard 3/8"
connection nuts and plastic sleeves
supplied with the faucet.
l
The plastic sleeve or connection nut is
lost: purchase a replacement nut and/or
plastic sleeve that are designed to seal
with PEX tubing.
NOTICE: DO NOT use a
metal sleeve, RP51243 gasket (supplied
with faucet) or ferrule in the place of the
plastic sleeve supplied, it may not
create a leak-free joint.
