INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove all contents from the package and check for completeness.
2. Turn off water supply.
3. Removefaucet(1)andhardwarefromitsprotectivepackaging–
faucet comes assembled.
4. Cut mounting hole 13
/8" in diameter (35mm) in the desired
position (if one isn’t available).
5. Remove set screw (2) from faucet body (1) and sit aside for later.
Place a soft cloth in the sink or on the countertop to sit the
faucet (1) on during the installation to protect it from scratches.
6. Separate the Fast-InTM base (3) from the faucet body (1) and slide it
several inches down the attached supply hoses (6,7,8,9).
7. Insert supply hoses (6,7,8,9) and Fast-InTM base (3) into desired
mounting location hole and lay faucet to side on soft cloth. If your
application has 3 holes to cover, sit base plate gasket and base
plate (5) over the holes. If your application is a single hole, the
base plate and gasket (5) are optional.
8. Make sure the rubber o-ring (4) is in the groove at the bottom of
the Fast-InTM base (3). You may have to loosen the phillips screws
at the top of the Fast-InTM base (3) until the mounting cleats are
free which will allow them to tuck inside the Fast-InTM base (3) for
installation. (See Fig 1).
9. Make sure the flat side of the Fast-InTM base (3) that is labeled
"PULL-OUT" (See Fig 2) is facing squarely towards the backsplash
behind your sink, or where you intend to mount the faucet
(See Fig 3). This should allow you to align the Fast-InTM base
(3) properly so the faucet spout and handles are pointed in the
right direction after installed. If you are unsure, slide the faucet
body (1) onto the Fast-InTM base (3) to confirm if the spout and
handles are aligned properly before you tighten the screws.
10. Tighten 2 mounting screws in the Fast-InTM base (3) with phillips
screwdriver to secure the base to the mounting surface. This
will take several turns. If you decide to use a power drill, it is
recommended to apply final torque by hand, not with the drill,
to avoid damaging the screws.
11. Slide faucet body (1) onto the Fast-InTM base (3), align the screw
hole in the faucet body (1) with the hole in the Fast-InTM base (3),
and install and tighten the set screw (2) to secure the faucet
body (1) to the Fast-InTM base (3).
12. Connect the spray hose (9) to the spray supply hose (6) connected
to the faucet body (1).
13. Attach the clip-on weight (10) to the spray hose (9) approximately
2" above the bend in the bottom of the spray hose.
14. Connect the supply hoses (7 & 8) to the water supply in the
home.
15. Remove aerator using a 22mm wrench, turn on water and flush
the faucet for any debris. Check for leaks and reinstall aerator.
