Recommended fitting type for back-to-back installations.
Depending upon your plumbing and venting conditions, the flow from
the Champion in a back-to-back installation may create a vacuum on
the system and draw water from the opposing bowl. The National
Standards Plumbing Code prohibits the use of a cross fitting for
drainage as throw over is possible. The code does approve a
directional "Y" style fitting with proper venting to direct the water
downward and away from the other toilet.

9a Before continuing, determine the type of water supply connection you have from the chart below and use the appropriate assembly parts
required to properly reconnect the water supply. DO NOT use plumber's putty to seal these fittings.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE
CONE WASHER WITH
PLASTIC SUPPLY LINE.
CAUTION: Overtightening of
LOCK NUT or COUPLING NUT
could result in breakage and
potential flooding.
These parts must be used as illustrated
to insure water-tight connection. Use of
existing coupling nut may result in water
leakage. Water supply tube or pipe must
extend at least 1/2" inside threaded
shank of valve (does not apply to
flanged tubing).
Use existing
coupling nut
and washer.
Use existing spiral cone
washer. Fluidmaster
cone washer may not
seal completely on
spiral type supply line.
Captive cone
washers already
included. No
additional washers
needed.

• Make sure water supply is off.
Remove valve TOP by lifting
arm and rotating top and arm
1/8 turn counterclockwise,
pressing down slightly on cap.
IMPORTANT: Always clear
sand and rust from system.
• While holding a
container over the
uncapped VALVE to
prevent splashing, turn
water supply on and
off a few times. Leave
water supply off.
• Replace TOP by engaging
lugs and rotating 1/8 turn
clockwise. MAKE CERTAIN
TIP IS TURNED TO THE
LOCKED POSITION. VALVE
MAY NOT TURN ON IF TOP
IS NOT FULLY TURNED TO
THE LOCKED POSITION.
For troubleshooting information please contact:
TROUBLESHOOTING
IF FILL VALVE SHUTS OFF BUT CONTINUES TO
LEAK SLOWLY, repeat Step 14.
IF FILL VALVE TURNS OFF AND ON DURING
PERIODS OF NON-USE, it is a signal you are
wasting water because:
• The end of the refill tube is inserted into overflow
pipe, below water level in tank. Attach refill tube to
overflow pipe using "S" clip provided.
• The flush valve is leaking because it's worn, dirty
or misaligned.
IF FILL VALVE WON'T TURN ON OR SHUT OFF
or REFILL OF TANK WATER IS SLOW after valve
has been in use for some time, Fluidmaster Model
242 Replacement Seal may be needed.
