19. Slide the escutcheon back against the nut. Adjust
the handle trim connector to make sure there are
no gaps between the escutcheon (2,2a) and nut
(1e). If gaps remain, cut the threaded sleeve and/or
the valve stem.
20.Remove the handle assembly (1-1h) and escutcheon
(2,2a) then apply a bead of silicone to the back side
of the escutcheon to create a seal against the wall.
Reinstall the escutcheon and handle assembly.
SPOUT INSTALLATION:
21.To extend spout projection, install a ½" IPS brass
nipple (7) (not supplied) of appropriate length and
coupling (7a) (not supplied) into the spout tee (6g).
22.Wrap the nipple and spout adapter (7b) with
Teflon tape.
23.Maker sure the washer (7c) is fully inserted into the
spout adapter (7b) then thread the spout adapter
onto the coupling. The adapter can be tightened
using a 3/8" hex wrench.
24.Slide the escutcheon (8,8a,8b) onto the spout then
thread the spout onto the spout adapter.

this will be removed after wall is finished.
HANDLE INSTALLATION
9. Pull the tile shield off the threaded sleeve (5) then
thread the handle trim connector assembly (3-3d)
onto the threaded sleeve until it stops.

connector assembly then thread on the handle
assembly (1-1h).
11. Slide the escutcheon (2-2a) back until it contacts
the gland nut (1e).
12. Measure the distance from the face of the finished
wall to the back side of the escutcheon. This
measurement will be the length of threaded sleeve
that will be cut off in step 14.
13. Remove the handle assembly (1-1h), handle trim
connector assembly (3-3d) and threaded sleeve (5).
14. Mark then cut the threaded sleeve the amount
equal to what was measured in step 12. Do NOT
cut the end of the threaded sleeve (5) that has
internal threads or the handle trim connector
assembly (3,3d).
15. Thread the threaded sleeve back onto the valve
stem (4) and mark the stem at a point that is flush
with the end of the threaded sleeve.
16. Remove the threaded sleeve and valve stem then
cut the valve stem ½" BEYOND the mark made in
step 15.
17. Reinstall the valve stem then the threaded sleeve
and make sure the stem tip is ½" beyond the end
of the sleeve.
18. Attach the handle trim connector and handle
assembly to the threaded sleeve. Do not
over-tighten the trim connector or the handle may
bind.

A clear adhesive silicone may be used to ensure a
water-tight seal between the upper gasket and
lavatory.
