Before turning water on during either rough-in or trim-out, make sure the cartridge retainer nuts are in place. The cartridge and

cartridge retainer nuts were properly installed and tested before leaving the factory. Although it is unlikely, it is nevertheless possible

that through the handling of the faucet by any number of persons the cartridge retainer nuts may not be properly installed. This

should be carefully checked at time of rough-in and trim-out. If the cartridge retainer nuts are not properly installed, water pressure

could force the cartridge out of the faucet body. Personal injury or water damage to the premises could result.

CAUTION:

Always turn water OFF before disassembling the faucet. Open both faucet handles to relieve

water pressure to insure that COMPLETE water shut-off has been accomplished.

WARNING:

Do not solder the threads

or apply heat to the valve.

Serious internal damage

could result.

Pipe, ells and nipples are not

furnished with the valve.

MEASUREMENTS: These are shown in the

drawings. The depth measurement is critical.

The center line of the supply and discharge

piping should be a maximum of 3-1/16" and a

minimum of 2" behind the finished wall sur-

face, including tile. This is 1-1/16" of adjust-

ment. It is suggested that for best appear-

ance of the handles on the finished valve, the

rough-in should be made near the maximum

limit.

4. Turn off the hot and cold cartridges, install the showerhead.

5. Check the system for leaks.
