Installation Instructions
INSTALL THE FAUCET
Be sure there is room underneath and above the
sink to make the needed connections. Before
starting, make sure there is sufficient room for the
faucet base and unit. Select one of the following
places to install the faucet:
A. In an existing sink spray attachment or soap
dispenser hole.
B. In a hole to be drilled in the sink top.
C. In a hole to be drilled in the countertop, next
to the sink.
NOTES:
• Be sure the faucet base will fit flat against the
surface at the selected location so the bottom
gasket between the base and surface area will
seal.
• Make sure to leave enough clearance at the back
of the faucet in case you need to remove it. The
installation of the butterfly bracket is slightly off to
center of the base. When drilling, make sure to
take this offset into account with hole placement.
Installation Steps (refer to illustration below
for clarification)
Be sure to use the proper procedure for
drilling stone, porcelain or stainless steel.
Special drill bits may be needed. Consult a
qualified plumber for the proper procedure.
CAUTION
When drilling in Stainless Steel,
edges may be sharp and could puncture the tube.
Be careful to not cut yourself or damage the tube.
2. Remove the faucet body and base by turning the
base counterclockwise.
3. Remove the butterfly bracket from the screw.
Then insert the screw into the top of the base and
reattach the butterfly bracket.
4. Align the gasket to cover the hole completely.
Then place the butterfly bracket on the base into
the hole.
Sink
