Water Factory Systems FM1500 Faucet - Manual (Page 5)

F. Mounting The Faucet
1. Remove all hardware from the threaded nipple of the
faucet except for the plastic base plate. Use a small
amount of putty to seal the base plate.
2. Put the blue tubing and threaded nipple through the
faucet mounting hole and position the faucet spout
over the sink.
3. From below sink/countertop, assemble the plastic
bottom washer, star washer and hex nut onto the
threaded nipple and tighten by hand. (See Fig. 2).
4. After rechecking faucet orientation, tighten hex nut with
a 9/16” wrench until faucet feels secure.
5. From above the sink, make any minor orientation
corrections by turning the faucet on its “flats” with a
padded adjustable wrench. Use care so as not to mar
the stainless steel finish.
G. Mounting The Drinking Water Filtration System
NOTE: Be sure to locate the system where there is a
minimum of 2” clearance underneath it to facilitate filter
cartridge changes.
1. Mark the mounting screws location on the cabinet
side wall using the holes on the bracket as guides.
2. Drill starter holes into side wall.
3. Hang the filtration system onto the side wall by
fastening wood screws through the bracket and
into the mounting surface.

I. Make Tubing Connections
NOTE: With all the components in place, the tubing
connections can be made. Be sure to arrange the tubing so

NOTE: Try to keep the tubing from filtration system to the
faucet as short as possible to ensure good water flow.

“Push-In” male connector on the ball valve located on
the inlet side of the filtration assembly. (Refer to Fig. 3
on the use of “Push-In” plastic fittings.) Con nect the
other end to the feedwater valve (not included).
