INSTALLATION
NOTE: Please read all instructions, specifications, and
precautions before installing and using your
RO-2600.
NOTE: For standard, under-sink installation on 3/8-inch
(10 mm) steel, brass, or copper cold water line.
NOTE: Lettered diagrams correspond with lettered steps.
1. Installing the Water Supply Adapter
The supply adapter fits 1/2" 14 NPS supply threads. If local
codes permit, it may be used to connect the filter system
to the cold water supply line. If local codes do not permit
the use of the supply adapter, alternate connectors can be
obtained from your local plumbing wholesaler.
A. Turn off cold water supply line. If cold water line does
not have a shut-off valve under the sink, one should be
installed.
B. Turn on the cold water faucet and allow all water to
drain from line.
C. Disconnect cold water line from 1/2" 14 NPS threaded
stub on bottom of main faucet.
D. Screw the water supply adapter to the threaded faucet
stub as shown.
E. Using the nut that previously connected the cold water
line to the faucet, screw the cold water line to the male
supply adapter threads.

2. Selecting the Faucet Location
NOTE: The drinking water faucet should be positioned
with function, convenience, and appearance in
mind. An adequate flat area is required to allow
faucet base to rest securely. The faucet fits through
a 1⅜" hole. Most sinks have pre-drilled 1⅜" or
1½" diameter holes that may be used for faucet
installation. If these pre-drilled holes cannot be
used or are in an inconvenient location, it will
be necessary to drill a 1⅜" hole in the sink to
accommodate the faucet.

This procedure may generate dust which
can cause severe irritation if inhaled or come
in contact with the eyes. The use of safety
glasses and respirator for this procedure is
recommended.
Do not attempt to drill through an all-
porcelain sink. If you have an all-porcelain
sink, mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer
hole or drill through countertop next to sink.
When drilling through a countertop, make
sure the area below the drilled area is free of
wiring and piping. Make certain that you have
ample room to make the proper connections
to the bottom of the faucet.
Do not drill through a countertop that is more
than 1" thick.
Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble,
granite or similar countertop. Consult a
plumber or the countertop manufacturer for
advice or assistance.
