2. Assemble and fix the tap as shown in the relevant diagram.
NOTE:- If the supply pressure is above 1.0 bar it may be advisable to fit the 6 or 8 litre per minute flow regulator.
The flow limiter should be fitted to the tail of the tap with the arrow pointing upwards and the ‘o’ ring at the base.
3. Connect the water supply to the tap.
4. The tap is supplied with both red and blue indices, for either hot or cold use. Please ensure that the correct
indice is fitted to the correct tap.
5. Turn the water supplies on and operate the tap several times to flush the system.
6. Check all joints and connections for leaks.
Note:- If the supply pressure is above 3 bar a pressure reducing valve must be fitted. All supply pipework should be
thoroughly flushed before connecting to the taps to remove any debris in the pipework. Taps should also be
installed without using of any sealants. Waterborne debris may damage internal parts. Damage caused by
waterborne debris will invalidate the guarantee.
