TEMPERATURE SETTING

• Remove MUDGUARD (1), SETSCREW (2), and

STEM-GUARD (3) from CARTRIDGE-STEM (4)

• Place STEM (5) onto CARTRIDGE-STEM (4) and

secure in place with SCREW (6) as shown

WARNING: This valve is factory set to deliver water at the highest
temperature possible. It is the installer’s responsibility to properly
set the desired and/or required maximum temperature setting to

prevent risk on scalding or other severe injury prior to consumer use.
The valve MUST have the high temperature limit stop set during

installation. The installer is responsible to set this high temperature
limit based on user preferences and all local plumbing code
requirements. This valve does NOT monitor temperature. The valve

will avoid anti-scald situations, due to pressure and flow fluctuations in
supply lines, by regulating pressure during operation.

• Remove temperature limit STOP (8) from

CARTRIDGE (7)

• Rotate STEM (5) counter-clockwise (CCW) to

start water flow. Temperature will become hotter

as stem is rotated. Use temperature measuring

device at outlet flow to determine maximum
temperature

IMPORTANT: To prevent severe injury, maximum temperature
setting should be no greater than 115ºF. The high temperature MUST

meet all local plumbing code requirements.

• Place temperature limit STOP (8) back onto

CARTRIDGE (7)

• Lower temperature is achieved by rotating the

temperature limit STOP (8) clockwise (CW). This

limits the rotation of the cartridge stem which in
turn limits maximum temperature
