SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install
the product.
CAUTION
• If you solder the joints during installation of the faucet, the seats, cartridges, and washers must be
removed before using a flame or the warranty will be voided on these parts.
• Cover the sink drain to avoid losing parts.
WARNING
• Protect your eyes with safety glasses when cutting or soldering water supply lines.
• When making water line connections, HAND TIGHTEN. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Do not use
PTFE pipe tape, plumber's putty, pipe dope or any other type of sealing compound on water inlet
or threads. Additional compound is unnecessary. A watertight seal between the thread inlet and
supply tube is achieved by compression.
PREPARATION
Before beginning assembly of product, make sure all parts are present. Compare parts with package
contents list and hardware contents list. If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to
assemble the product. Contact customer service for replacement parts.
Estimated Assembly Time: 30 minutes
Tools Required for Assembly (not included): Adjustable Wrench, Slip Joint Pliers, Pipe Wrench,
Phillips Screwdriver, Silicone and Supply Lines.
Installation may vary depending on how the previous faucet was installed. Supplies necessary for the
installation of the faucet are not all included; however, they are available wherever plumbing supplies
are sold.
Prior to beginning installation, turn off the hot and cold water lines, then turn on the old faucet to
release built-up pressure. When installing the new faucet, hand tighten the connector nuts. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN. Connections that are too tight will reduce the integrity of the system.
