CAUTION: Always turn water off before disassembling the valve. Open valve handle to

alleviate water pressure to insure that complete water shut-off has been

accomplished.

Before turning water on during either rough-in or trim-out, make sure that cartridge retainer clip is in place. The

cartridge and retainer clip were properly installed and tested before leaving the factory. Although it is unlikely, it

is nevertheless possible that through the handling of the valve by any number of persons the retainer clip may not

be properly installed. This should be carefully checked at time of rough-in and trim-out. If the retainer clip is not

properly installed, water pressure could force the cartridge out of the casting. Personal injury or water damage to

the premises could result.

Maintenance

Your new faucet will give good service for an extended period of time. Should foreign materials in the system affect its operation, routine repairs can be

easily made. If your faucet drips from the spout end or leaks up through the handle, follow “Disassembly“ instructions and replace with the cartridge

listed in the Replacement Parts List, on page 4. If your faucet leaks from either the top or bottom of the spout hub, use the Spout Seal Kit (listed in the

Replacement Parts List) and replace. Re-assemble, following “Reassembly“ instructions. For proper water flow, aerator must be free of foreign

particles;. If fow is weak or irregular, unscrew aerator, clean and replace.

To Eliminate Cross-Piping On Back-To-Back Installations, or To Correct

Reversed Rough-In Where Hot and Cold Positions Are Reversed:

Remove handle cap, handle screw and handle assembly (see “Disassembly” instructions). Turn valve stem around

so that the notched flat is turned one half turn or 180˚. Re-install handle parts (see “Reassembly” instructions).

Consumer Information

Faucets made of leaded brass alloys may contribute small amounts of lead to water that is allowed to stand in contact with the brass. The amount of

lead contributed by any faucet is highest when the faucet is new. The following steps may reduce potential exposure to lead from faucets and other parts

of the plumbing system:

• Always run the water for a few seconds prior to use for drinking or cooking.

• Use only cold water for drinking or cooking.

• If you wish to flush the entire plumbing system of water that has been standing in the pipes or other fittings, run the cold water until the temperature

of the water drops, indicating water coming from the outside main.
