How to Install the Faucet
To perform installation, installer must provide G1/2” female supply ttings(1),
spaced 150mm apart and horizontally. The supply ttings should be vertical
and not beyond the nished wall. Hot supply pipe must be located on the left.
Flush the water supply pipes thoroughly to remove debris. Install the two off-
set connectors(2) into the hot and cold supply pipes. Use appropriate thread
sealants or thread tape on pipe threads.
Adjust the center-to-center distance between the connectors to 150mm and
horizontally. They should extend 29mm beyond the nished wall. Thread the
escutcheons(3) onto the connectors until they are against the nished wall.
Put the washers(4) into the nuts(5), thread the nuts to connectors. Tighten the
nuts with strap wrench or soft cloth between product and regular wrench.

How to Install the Shower Column
Select a location in vertical wall to install shower column according to rough-
in dimensions. Drill the lower hole according to anchors’(6) diameter and
lower base(8-1) position in the nished wall(NOTE: The arrow in the base is
upward). Press anchors into the hole, secure the base by the screw(7).
Rehearse the slide bar kit(9) installation for the upper base(8-2) mounting
location determination. Slide the tube joint(10) onto the slide bar kit, and
connect them to the base(NOTE: The arrow in the base is up). Install the
screws(12) into the tube joint with the hex wrench(11), and tighten them.
Place the slide bar and the body against the nished wall. Connect the lower
base and the diverter body kit(13). Position and tighten them by hex wrench.
Mark the hole of upper base(8-2) with a pencil. Uninstall the slide bar kit and
tube joint.(NOTE: Don’t lose the screws.)
Drill holes on the mark. Press the anchors into the holes. Secure the upper
base(8-2) by the screws. Install the tube joint(10) to the base(8-2) and tighten
them by screws. Reinstall the slide bar kit with escutcheons(14) to the bases.
Tighten the screws with the hex wrench. Screw the escutcheons with the
bases until against the nished wall.
Install the tube kit(15) into the slide bar kit. Install the nut(16) onto the tube kit
with soft cloth between internal hole of the nut and the tube kit. Then screw
the nut onto the slide bar kit with strap wrench or soft cloth between the nut
and regular wrench.
