- STEP 2: INSTALL DRAIN ADAPTER -
■ Note: Running the drain tubing directly to a floor
drain, sump, standpipe, laundry tub, etc., as shown
on page 17, is preferred. However, if that is not pos­
sible or practical, the included drain adapter installs
in the sink drain pipe, always
above or ahead of the
p-trap (FIG. 4). Be sure to comply with your local
plumbing codes. Other drain pipe fittings, in addi­
tion to the adapter, may be needed.
■ The drain adapter fits 1-1/2" sink drain pipe.
■ The adapter installs directly onto the sink tailpiece
as typically shown in FIG. 4 and 5.
■ Locate so drain tubing from the faucet (installed in
step 1, page 8) makes a straight run to the adapter,
without dips, loops, low spots or kinks.
Note: Consult a plumber if you are not familiar with
plumbing procedures.
1. Use a ferrule and nut to assemble the drain tubing
connector to the drain adapter (FIG. 5). Turn the con­
nector to about 45“ from the 12:00 position, as shown
(to 10:00 or 2:00 position as needed), lighten the nut
securely.
2. Carefully disassemble the sink drain pipe and
clean the tailpiece to assure a leak-tight fit.
3. Install the drain adapter onto the sink tailpiece,
using a ferrule and nut. Snug the nut, but do not
tighten.
Note: If needed, to make fit, you can cut to shorten
the unthreaded end of the adapter.
Do not cut too
short so the adapter will make a leak-tight seal with
the connecting fitting.
4. Assemble the p-trap to the drain adapter, and oth­
er drain pipe fittings as required (check codes) to
complete the drain run.
5. Tighten all connections, but do not overtighten and
break plastic fittings.
- STEP 3: INSTALL FAUCET -
A. PREPARE MOUNTING HOLE
1. Select one of the following places for the faucet. Be
sure it win fit flat against the surface, and there is
space underneath for tubing (see FIG. 8, page 8).
^ Use an existing sink top hole for a spray hose or
other faucet.
A 1-1/8" to 1-1/4" diameter hole is
needed.
^ Drill a new hole in the countertop next to the
sink.
^ Drill a new hole in the sink top.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging a sink beyond re­
pair,
consult a qualified plumber or installer for
guides to drill holes in porcelain or stainless steel.
2. If drilling is needed, make the 1-1/ 8" to 1 -1/4" di­
ameter hole.
3. Place plumbers putty around the drilled hole (FIG.
6) to prevent water leakage around the base of the
faucet.
