to the spout. From tub top, screw the handle trim (2) with flange washer (3) back onto
the valve body. The washer (3) must be gently pressed against the surface. Make sure that
the handle turns freely in both directions.

Align the handle lever and tighten lock nut (5) firmly. Repeat the same procedure for the
opposite side.

- Connect the valve body side outlet to the inlet (IN) of the diverter valve (12) after the diverter
is installed. **
DIVERTER INSTALLATION
