THE REMOVAL OF THE WARNING LABEL BARRIER ON THE FACE OF THIS MIXING VALVE
CONSTITUTES THE TRANSFER OF LIABILITY FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO THE
INSTALLER UNDER THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. IT IS THE INSTALLERS
RESPONSIBILITY TO SET THE MAXIMUM OUTPUT TEMPERATURE OF THE VALVE TO NO
MORE THAN 120F, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASSE/ANSI STANDARD 1016-1996 DEALING WITH
INDIVIDUAL THERMOSTATIC, PRESSURE BALANCING AND COMBINATION PRESSURE
BALANCING AND THERMOSTATIC CONTROL VALVES FOR INDIVIDUAL FIXTURES SECTION
4.2.2., TEMPERATURE LIMIT SETTING.

TO PROPERLY SET THE LIMIT RING, YOU MUST USE A THERMOMETER OR CALIBRATED SENSING
DEVICE TO ACCURATELY MEASURE THE OUTLET WATER TEMPERATURE. THE ADJUSTMENT RING
IS POSITIONED AS FOLLOWS:

Expose the top of the cartridge by removing the trim sleeve from the valve body. Do not remove the
hex nut holding it in place.
Remove the grey adjustment ring by placing the blade of a knife into the groove and prying it off (see
Figure 3
).
Note the stop on the bottom of the ring (see Figure 4). The further it is re-oriented in a counter-
clockwise direction, the shorter the travel allowed (and thus, the lower the temperature output possible).

IMPORTANT: BEFORE RE-ORIENTING THE RING, BE SURE THE STEM IS IN THE FULL OFF
POSITION.
