Secure Toilet and Clean Up
Place retainers (provided), washers, and nuts over T-bolts. Hand
tighten nuts. Tighten 1/2 turn with a wrench.
CAUTION: DO NOT overtighten nuts. Doing so may break or chip
toilet.
Wipe any wax or dirt from around bolts. If T-bolts extend more than ¹⁄₄"
above nut, cut off excess bolt lengths with a hacksaw. Snap bolt caps
(provided) onto retainer.
8
Setting the Toilet
IMPORTANT: Remove rag from closet flange before setting
new toilet.
NOTE: Toilet is heavy. Manufacturer suggests you enlist the help of
a second person to set toilet.
Carefully lower toilet onto T-bolts on closet flange.
CAUTION: DO NOT lift or rock toilet after placement. This will dam-
age toilet gasket. If gasket's watertight seal is broken, you must
replace gasket.
Applying full body weight, press straight down on rim of toilet.
7
Install Toilet Gasket
Center wax toilet gasket directly over
closet flange. Place wax toilet gasket onto
closet flange.

Safety Equipment
•Safety glasses
Before you remove your old toilet, unpack the new toilet and care-
fully inspect each part for any damage that may have occurred during
shipment. If damage is discovered, contact your place of purchase. You
do not want to discover damage after the toilet has been installed. Until
you are ready to begin installation, place the toilet in a safe place to pre-
vent damage. Check contents of carton for furnished materials.
Refer to the illustration on the front page, noting fixture dimensions
and locations of water supply and outlet.
For new construction, refer to the dimensions on the front page for
locating the supply stop. OBSERVE ALL LOCAL PLUMBING CODES.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the wall and floor are square and plumb to
ensure proper installation.

Remove Existing Toilet
NOTE: Toilet is heavy. Manufacturer suggests you enlist the
help of a second person to remove toilet from T-bolts.
Pry bolt caps from T-bolts. Remove nuts, washers, and retainers from T-
bolts. Grasp sides of bowl and remove from floor.
NOTE: Remove toilet from closet flange by gently rocking toilet back
and forth.
Remove old gasket from closet flange. Remove T-bolts from closet
flange. Clean flange area.

Turn On Water Supply
Turn on supply stop and check for
leaks. Slightly re-tightening nuts
should stop any leaks. Over several days,
check all connections for leaks. Nuts under
bolt caps may also require re-tightening.
11
Adjust screw on top of float
valve to obtain correct water level in
tank. Turn screw counterclockwise to
raise water level; turn screw clock-
wise to lower water level.
NOTE: Windham toilets are
designed to operate without an
overflow tube. The barb for con-
necting an overflow tube to the
head of the float valve is visible,
but the water passage through the
barb is blocked. Overflow tube is
not supplied.
12
Tank Installation
Inserting tank bolts into bowl mounting holes, place tank onto bowl.
Be sure tank outlet is seated in bowl inlet. Attach hex nuts to bolts under
bowl by firmly pushing down on tank top. Tighten hex nuts evenly so tank
top is level with bowl top. This will ensure tank is level and will obtain a
watertight seal between tank and bowl.
CAUTION: DO NOT overtighten hex nuts.

burrs from inside tube.
Thread plastic coupling nut (provided with toilet), compression nut, and
ferrule onto tubing. Insert bottom end of tubing into supply stop. Position
seal washer onto top of supply tube and insert top of supply tube into
valve shank.
CAUTION: DO NOT overtighten coupling nut or compression nut. DO
NOT use tools to tighten plastic nuts.
Hand tighten coupling nut, then compression nut.

Troubleshooting Hint
If water continuously runs into toilet, turn off water at supply stop. DO NOT flush toilet.
• Water level in tank lowers. The probable cause is the flapper.
• Water level in tank remains constant. The probable cause is the float valve.
Consumer Responsibilities
Clean your new toilet's bowl and your new china lavatory at least once a week using only recommended cleaners. If you live in a hard water area, you
should make certain that the holes under the rim are kept clean for proper bowl flushing. Use a long-handled brush to clean the rim holes.
CAUTION: Do not use in-tank cleaners. Products containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite) can seriously damage the fittings in your tank. This damage
can cause leakage and property damage. Sterling Plumbing Group shall not be responsible or liable for any tank fitting damage caused by the use of
cleaners containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite).
