2. Install the Overflow Ell
Position the gasket with the tapered side against the overflow ell
with the thin edge of the gasket at the top of the overflow ell.
Align the overflow ell with the overflow hole of the bath.
Fit the hold down plate over the lower mounting holes on the
overflow ell.
Wrap thread sealant tape around the threads of the two flat-blade
screws. This will prevent water seeping through the lower
mounting holes on the overflow ell.
From inside the bath, insert the two flat-blade screws through the
hold down plate and into the lower mounting holes on the
overflow ell.
Thread the screws into the overflow ell approximately three to
four turns. Do not tighten the screws completely. The overflow ell
must be loose in order to align the rest of the drain.
