Water Closet Installations (EL-512 Adapter Kit)
When using the ETF-485-A Positioning and Support Kit for a water closet installation, the
EL-151 Urinal Wall Plate must be used.
Attach the EL-511 Adapter to the plaster ring using the four (4) EL-177
#6-32 Flat Head Fasteners provided. The EL-151 Wall Plate will then fit over the Adapter
which will plug the oval opening in the plate.
Note: If the EL-485-A Positioning and Support Kit is being installed prior to having the ES-
S valve on the jobsite, temporarily attach the EL-151 Plate to the Adapter with the EL-152
Socket Head Fasteners.
Remove and reattach the Plate when installing the flushometer. Discard the Wall Plate
furnished with the valve.
When the EL-485-A Positioning and Support Kit is used for a urinal installation, the EL-511
Adapter is not used and can be discarded.
When the EL-518-A Positioning and Support Kit is packaged with the 180 ES-S or
186 ES-S Urinal Flushometer, the EL-512 Adapter Kit is not furnished.
