FAUCET ASSEMBLY
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.
Installation Steps (refer to illustration
below for clarification)
1. If drilling is needed, make a 1
hole. Be sure to use the proper procedure
for drilling porcelain or stainless steel.
Special drill bits may be needed. Consult a
qualified plumber for the proper procedure.
NOTE: When drilling in stainless steel, the
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. Push the 1/4" black tube and the 3/8" black
tube onto the correct barb fittings on the
faucet base. Push the 3/8" blue tube
through the base.
