- STEP 2: INSTALL DRAIN ADAPTER -

Note: Running the drain tubing directly to a floor

drain, sump, standpipe, laundry tub, etc., as shown

on page 17, is preferred. However, if that is not pos-

sible or practical, the included drain adapter installs in the sink drain pipe, always above or ahead of the

p-trap (FIG. 4). Be sure to comply with your local

plumbing codes. Other drain pipe fittings, in addi- tion to the adapter, may be needed.

The drain adapter fits 1-1/2" sink drain pipe.

The adapter installs directly onto the sink tailpiece

as typically shown in FIG. 4 and 5.

Locate so drain tubing from the faucet (installed in

step 1, page 8) makes a straight run to the adapter,

without dips, loops, low spots or kinks.

plumbing procedures.

1.Use a ferrule and nut to assemble the drain tubing

connector to the drain adapter (FIG. 5). Turn the con- nector to about 45 ° from the 12:00 position, as shown

(to 10:00 or 2:00 position as needed). Tighten the nut

securely.

2. Carefully disassemble the sink drain pipe and

clean the tailpiece to assure a leak-tight fit.

3.Install the drain adapter onto the sink tailpiece,

using a ferrule and nut. Snug the nut, but do not tighten.

Note: If needed, to make fit, you can cut to shorten

the unthreaded end of the adapter. Do not cut too

short so the adapter will make a leak-tight seal with

the connecting fitting.

er drain pipe fittings as required (check codes) to

complete the drain run.

5.Tighten all connections, but do not overtighten and break plastic fittings.

-STEP 3: INSTALL FAUCET -

A. PREPARE MOUNTING HOLE

1.Select one of the following places for the faucet. Be sure it will fit flat against the surface, and there is

space underneath for tubing (see FIG. 8, page 8).

@Use an existing sink top hole for a spray hose or

other faucet. A 1-1/8" to 1-1/4" diameter hole is needed.

@Drill a new hole in the countertop next to the

sink.

@Drill a new hole in the sink top.

CAUTION: To avoid damaging a sink beyond re-

pair, consult a qualified plumber or installer for

guides to drill holes in porcelain or stainless steel.

2.If drilling is needed, make the 1-1/8" to 1-1/4" di- ameter hole.

3.Place plumbers putty around the drilled hole (FIG.

6) to prevent water leakage around the base of the faucet.
