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 3/4-inch hole.
Most sinks have pre-drilled 13⁄8-inch or 1
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 3/4-inch hole in
the sink to accommodate
the faucet.
This procedure may generate dust which can cause severe
irritation if inhaled or comes 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 one-inch
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.
A. Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal shavings, parts,
or tools from falling down drain.
B. Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to prevent scratches if
drill bit slips.
C. Mark hole with center punch. Use a 1/4-inch drill bit for a pilot hole.
D. Using a 3/4-inch drill bit, drill a hole completely through the sink.
Smooth the rough edges with a file.
3. Mounting the Faucet
A. Place the decorative escutcheon plate over the threaded shaft followed
by the flat rubber washer.
B. Slide the threaded shaft into the hole on the sink top.
C. The locating washer is positioned with the center facing down. If the
hole is 1/2-inch or larger the locating washer is turned over. The center
of the washer will position the faucet in the hole.
D. Place the star washer and the lock nut onto the threads and finger
tighten.
E. Place the faucet in final position and tighten the lock nut until the
faucet is secure.
