OPTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Important- if installing an optional VB8/6 Rigid vacuum breaker spout and space is limited between deck fitting holes and
backsplash/wall, install the spout to the flange assembly at this time (See Step 6)
1) Remove the compression nut from the outlets of the end body valves. Remove the compression sleeves and tee assembly
from the tee assembly bag group. Slide one (1) compression nut and then one (1) compression sleeve over the copper pipe at
both ends of the tee assembly. Bench assemble the tee to the Hot/Cold end body valves. Be sure to push the copper piping
completely into the outlets of the valves. While holding the tee and compression sleeves in place, hand tighten the
compression nuts to the end bodies. Make sure the valves are perpendicular to the tee assembly.
2) Insert and position the gooseneck flange or center spout with gasket down through the center hole of the sink or counter top.
From under the sink, apply gooseneck flange/center spout hardware by sliding the spacer and channel washer onto the
threaded shank. Screw the shank nut halfway, not completely, up the shank. NOTE: Hole on top of gooseneck flange
should face towards the front. Slot in flange gasket should face towards the back for lift rod hole applications.
3) Loosen the setscrew and remove the end body valve flange nuts and rubber washers. Screw the locknuts and cup washers
down on end body valves. From below the counter top, push the end body with tee assembly up through the outer holes in the
sink or counter top. NOTE: Blue colored end body (COLD) should be on the right side of tee assembly, Red colored
end body (HOT) on the left. Hand tighten the tee assembly’s swivel nut to the shank of the gooseneck flange or center
spout. While lifting the end body with tee assembly up by its spindles, replace the rubber washers and screw the flange nuts
back onto the end body valves, with flat side up, till they are flush with the tops of the 1-1/8”-16 UN threads (See Rough-In on
back side of sheet). Tighten the setscrew to lock the end body valve flange nuts into position. Let the end body with tee
assembly rest on the flange nuts. From below, wrench tighten the gooseneck flange/center spout shank nut with channel
washer/spacer, tee swivel nut , end body valve locknuts with cup washers, and two (2) tee compression nuts at the outlets of
the end body valves to secure the entire unit and prevent leaks. NOTE: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE TEE SWIVEL NUT.
4) Connect water supply lines to inlets (1/2”-14 NPSM male threads) of the end body valves and wrench tighten coupling nuts to
prevent leaks.
5) From above the sink, screw trim onto end body valve assemblies and hand tighten. Slip trim sleeves onto spindles. Position
handles and screw onto spindles. Position index buttons on handles and press into place. If applicable, assemble gooseneck
to flange assembly by wrench tightening gooseneck collar nut. NOTE: For rigid gooseneck, place locking washer from
hardware bag group into flange outlet before assembling gooseneck.
6) For Rigid Vacuum Breaker Spout- VB6/8 (Less “SW” option): Make sure the locking washer is removed from flange outlet.
IMPORTANT- Install rigid adapter into flange and wrench tighten (See Rough-In on back side of sheet). Apply thread
locker/sealant to the spout tapered pipe threads. Screw the spout into the adapter until the threads start to get snug. NOTE:
When positioning the spout, hold adapter hex with a wrench so flange does not rotate. Tighten the spout at least 1/3
turn to the proper position (Do not over tighten spout). Remember that the thread locker/sealant will lock and seal the spout
assembly in place.
7) With drain installed (see drain instructions), turn water supplies on and flush both hot and cold sides of faucet. If applicable,
install outlet device. Check all connections for leaks.

DRAIN INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
POP-UP DRAIN:
1) Unscrew guide plug from tee/tube. Remove lift plug, locknut, fibre washer, and rubber washer from guide plug. Apply sealant
around underside of flange on guide plug. Insert guide plug through drain hole in sink and reassemble rubber washer, fibre
washer, and locknut. Hand tighten locknut.
2) Insert fibre washer into tee/tube (Pipe sealant can also be used with washer). Assemble tee/tube to guide plug and tighten.
Position ball rod hole so it faces back of lavatory and hold in place while wrench tightening guide plug locknut.
3) Insert lift plug, with the lower hole properly positioned for the ball rod, into guide plug. From under sink, insert o-ring into ball
rod hole. Lube ball of ball rod with o-ring lube and insert into ball rod hole. Assemble ball rod nut and tighten.
4) Insert lift rod through hole in center flange or spout. From under sink, slip lift rod through two holes of adjustable lift lever and
hand tighten thumbscrew. Slide one side of spring clip onto ball rod. Select the proper hole in lift lever and slip lever onto ball
rod. Bend other side of clip onto ball rod and slide into the proper position.
5) Adjust lift rod in lift lever so that the top of the lift rod knob is ¾” from the top of the flange or spout when the drain is in the
open position. Tighten the lift lever thumbscrew onto the lift rod.
6) Remove the tailpiece, apply thread sealant to the threads and reinstall back into the drain. Tighten the tailpiece and install
the trap. Check drain system for leaks.
STRAINER DRAIN:
1) Screw the locknut all the way down on drain. Slide the fibre and rubber washers all the way down.
2) Remove top flange and apply sealant around underside of the flange. Properly position flange in sink and press into place.
From under the sink, insert the tailpiece into the sink and screw into the top flange, while holding the flange in place. Hand
tighten.
3) Again holding top flange in place, screw locknut up against the sink and wrench tighten. Install the trap and check drain
system for leaks.
OPERATION
Simply rotate the handles ¼ turn maximum to operate the lavatory faucet.
MAINTENANCE (CARE and CLEANING)
End body valves are washerless and require no routine maintenance. The gleaming finish of your SPEAKMAN Commander lavatory
faucet can be cleaned by using mild soap and warm water. Dry immediately with a soft, clean cloth for best results.
