REPLACEMENT FAUCET
INSTRUCTIONS
The K3 Replacement Faucet can be used with any of the fol-
lowing OMNIFILTER
CBF3 Series A, CBF1, OT32 Series A, UC2, or the CCB4. Your
Undersink Water Filtering System was installed with either a Stop
Valve Adapter Tee or with a Saddle Valve assembly. Both methods
are used to tap into the cold water line. Your undersink installation
should resemble Figure 1 or Figure 2.
Remove the Old Faucet. See Figures 1 and 2.
1. From the underside of the sink, locate and turn off the cold
water shut-off valve located on the cold water line if you have a
stop valve adapter tee (Figure 1). If you have a saddle valve
(Figure 2), turn its handle clockwise as far as it will go. Open the
old faucet on the sink to relieve pressure on the system.
2. Find the connection between the faucet stem and the 1/4"
water supply tubing.
3. Loosen the hardware and remove the water supply tubing from
the faucet stem. Place the tubing end in a pan to catch any
water leaking from the disconnected tubing.
4. From the top side of the sink, remove the rest of the old faucet.
