Note: To soften end of tubing, hold under hot water.
b. Route 1/4" red tubing from RO up through the sink hole and slide end onto the smaller barb fitting
(heat end if needed) on the faucet.
c. Route 3/8" blue tubing from RO up through the sink hole and push end all the way into the tubing
adapter fitting on the bottom of the faucet. Pull on the tubing to be sure it's held firmly in the adapter fitting. See pages 12 and 13 for tubing connection instructions.
5.Lower the faucet into the sink or countertop hole.
6.On the underside of the sink or countertop, insert
the large steel washer between the mounting hole and the spacer on the faucet stud (see assembled view). Then, turn the hex nut up to the spacer and
