Before You Begin
Observe all local plumbing codes and building codes.
Shut off the water supplies.
Carefully inspect waste and supply tubing for any sign of
damage and replace if necessary.
For new installations, assemble the faucet and drain to the sink
before installing it.
Before installation, unpack the new faucet and inspect it for
damage. Return the faucet to the carton until you are ready to
install it.
Do not remove the faucet ground joints, as they contain
important back-siphonage protection.
Do not attach a dishwasher to the faucet spray outlet.

Screw the mounting stud into the threaded hole at the bottom of
the faucet body. The mounting stud should extend slightly
beyond the threaded hole in the body.

1. Faucet Installation
From the underside of the sink, position the bracket, washer and
nut onto the mounting stud.
Position the faucet and escutcheon on the sink to obtain the
desired alignment.
Tighten the nut securing the faucet to the sink. For best access,
use a socket wrench with a 7/16” deep socket.
NOTE: The weight must be installed to act as a pull stop and to
prevent kinking damage to the hose.
For best performance, attach the weight to the hose 23” (58.4cm)
from the loose end of the hose. The weight may be moved to
adjust the pull-out length of the hose.
Carefully tighten the weight screws. Do not overtighten.
Reconnect the hose to the hose connector.
2. Install the Supplies
CAUTION: Risk of restricted waterflow and product damage.
Use extreme care to avoid kinking and twisting when connecting
the hoses. Hoses must not be taut when installed.
CAUTION: Risk of back siphonage. Do not remove the ground
joints from this faucet. The ground joints contain very important
back-siphonage protection. .
