Always turn water off before disassembling the valve. Open valve handle to alleviate
water pressure to insure that complete water shut-off has been accomplished.
Before turning water on during either rough-in or trim-out, make sure that the cartridge retainer clip is in place. The cartridge

that through the handling of the valve by any number of persons the retainer clip may not be properly installed. This should
be carefully checked at time of rough-in and trim-out. If the retainer clip is not properly installed, water pressure could force
the cartridge out of the casting. Personal injury or water damage to the premises could result.

Flushing
IMPORTANT:
Pipe chips, sand, stones and other solids found in new and renovated plumbing can damage the sealing surface of
the faucet cartridge and cause a leak. To avoid damage, DO NOT OPERATE VALVE until you have followed these
instructions:
1. After installing and connecting your new faucet turn the valve on in the full cold position (handle
pointing to the right) and turn on the cold supply for 15 seconds.
2. Without closing the valve turn to the full hot position (handle pointing to the left) and turn on the hot
supply for 15 seconds.
3. Close the valve, unscrew aerator from the end of the spout and clean the cone screen.
4. Replace aerator. Check for leaks.

Disassembly
CAUTION: Turn OFF both hot and cold water supplies. Open handle to alleviate water pressure to insure that
complete water shut-off has been accomplished.
For Knob Models:
1. Remove handle cover, handle screw, knob, stop tube, washer, and retainer clip.
For Concentrix Handle Models:
1. Remove handle cover, gasket, handle screw, handle insert, handle skirt, handle adapter, stop tube, and retainer clip.
For Lever Handle Models:
1. Remove handle cap and handle screw. Lift handle assembly up, keep the cartridge stem in the closed position, tilt up
and off. Remove clip retainer ring and retainer clip. Slide off grooved sleeve and spacer.
For All Models:
2. Using the cartridge twisting tool (furnished with the new Moen cartridge) and pliers, turn the cartridge back and forth
between 11 and 1 o'clock, then grasp the cartridge stem and pull out the cartridge. If the cartridge is difficult to
remove, use a Moen cartridge puller.
To Eliminate Cross-Piping on Back-To-Back Installations,
or To Correct Reversed Rough-In Where Hot and Cold Positions Are Reversed
Remove handle parts and stop tube (see "Disassembly"). Turn cartridge stem around so that the notched flat is turned
one half turn or 180°. Reinstall handle parts. Tighten handle screw securely; replace handle cover.
Cleaning & Care Instructions for
Special Finish Models:
All that is necessary to clean these faucets is to wipe them with a soft, damp cloth such as terrycloth. Warm water will
remove dry water spots. CAUTION: DO NOT use cleansers which contain abrasives or harsh chemicals. NEVER use
alcohol or other organic solvents. A high quality, non abrasive wax polish applied occasionally will help to preserve the
deep tones of the finish.
Reassembly
Fully insert the cartridge until the top of the cartridge ears are level with the top of the faucet body. Position the cartridge
ears up and down to allow insertion of the retainer clip (see illustration on page one). Replace the retainer clip (for lever
handles replace spacer, grooved sleeve, retainer clip, and clip retainer ring) so that the legs straddle the cartridge ears
and slide down into the bottom slot in the body. This prevents the cartridge from rotating and locks it in the body. Re-
install handle parts (For concentrix models make sure the gasket fits up under and into the handle cover recess, then
screw on the handle cover and hand tighten). Tighten handle screw securely. Press on handle cover. The notched flat
on the stem must point UP when mounting Knob or Concentrix Handles, DOWN for Lever Handle models.

Consumer Information
Faucets made of leaded brass alloys may contribute small amounts of lead to water that is allowed to stand in contact
with the brass. The amount of lead contributed by any faucet is highest when the faucet is new. The following steps may
reduce potential exposure to lead from faucets and other parts of the plumbing system:
Always run the water for a few seconds prior to use for drinking or cooking.
Use only cold water for drinking or cooking.
If you wish to flush the entire plumbing system of water that has been standing in the pipes or other fittings, run the
cold water until the temperature of the water drops, indicating water coming from the outside main.
If you are concerned about lead in your water, have your water tested by a certified laboratory in your area.
