Please consult your Design Associate for current specifications.

Installation Guidelines

1

FLUSH OUT THE SYSTEM:

The supply lines must be flushed out to prevent clogging of

the filter screens. Failure to flush the lines will permanently

damage the cartridge and void the warranty.

20. The valve body is shipped with the flush plate installed

(11b,13) but without the cartridge installed and is ready

for flushing the lines.

21. Turn on the water supply to flush out the lines then

inspect all connections for leaks.

22. After the lines are flushed, turn off the water supply,

unthread the 2 cover screws (13), then remove the flush

plate.

23. Install the cartridge/cover plate (12 ) using the 2 cover

screws and turn off the service stops.

24. Install the tile guard (10).

ATTACH THE TRIM:

Please refer to the specification diagrams

25. Use only a protected, smooth-jawed, or strap wrench on

any finished surface.

26. Attach the threaded sleeve (#14) on the rough body (#9).

Slide the escutcheon plate (#7) over the sleeve. Mark the

threaded sleeve (#14) in preparation of cutting

3/16

beyond where it protrudes from the escutcheon plate.

27. Remove the trim (including the threaded sleeve) so that

the threaded sleeve (#14) can be cut. Be sure not to cut

the end with internal threads. File the cut edge with care.

28. Reattach the threaded sleeve (#14) and place the

escutcheon plate (#7) over it.

29. Place cap (#16) onto threaded sleeve (#14). This should

lock the escutcheon plate against the finished wall.

30. Introduce the square tube (#15) into the cap (#16) and

set it completely onto the axle of thermostatic body

(#9). (See Figure 1.)

31. Mark the square tube so that when it is cut it is flush

with the end of the cap (#16).

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:
Adjusting the Temperature.

32. IMPORTANT: The risk of scalding exists until the

installer has properly calibrated the temperature setting.

33. Calibrating the temperature: Let the water run at an

average temperature and take a reading of the water
temperature with a thermometer. Temperature adjust-
ments are made by inserting and turning a screwdriver
into the square tube (#15).

34. Place the temperature indicator (#18) on the cap

(#16) and adjust the pointer to the position corre-
sponding to the obtained water temperature.

35. Lock the set-screw onto cap (#16) and set up the

handle and cover (#4).

36. To bypass the temperature safety limit of 104°F, depress

the pointer and turn left to temperature exceeding this
limit. It is not recommended to exceed the present
temperature of 104°F.

37. Temperature settings should be checked periodically to

ensure that proper calibration is maintained.
