help slot the membrane into place or press the white nipple against a table so as to push it into the housing until it slots into place. Replace and tighten membrane-housing cap. Reinsert the tube end about a ¼” into the membrane-housing cap “push-pull” fitting then pull back gently to ensure a sung fit.

10.Remount the Tap Master, and SLOWLY open the main water line to the Tap Master. Open valve to refrigerator. Then open the tank valve slowly. Failure to repressurize slowly may result in system damage. It may take 20 minutes for water to begin flowing from the RO sink spigot. Allow the water to run until the flow is a thin gentle stream or fast drip. Close the RO sink spigot, and allow 3 hours for the reserve tank to refill, and then drain completely. Membrane contains a mild preservative. System must be flushed prior to use. DO NOT drink the first 3 gallons of water. Drinking from un-flushed system may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, colic and/or diarrhea. Consult a physician if discomfort persists. Running out the first tank (3.2gallons) will effectively flush out the system, and make it ready for use.

Troubleshooting

IMPORTANT NOTE: Before performing service on the Tap Master™ RO at any time, and for any

reason: first switch to the OFF position all under-sink water valves, except for the RO sink spigot which you should switch ON to relieve system pressure and drain away excess water from the lines. Push-pull and Speedfit® fittings are nearly impossible to remove when under pressure.

Leaks from metal fittings Unscrew fittings and re-tape male fitting. Tape should be wound 5-7 times around male thread. Tape should not cover opening. Use only Teflon tape. Re-tighten fitting securely. Over tightening can crush the tubing insert and cause a water blockage.

Leaks from quick connect, push-pull or Speedfit® fittings Disconnect fitting by pushing in the tubing with one hand and depressing the ring on the fitting with the other hand. Then pull out tubing while the ring is still depressed. Tubing cannot be pulled out without depressing the fitting ring, and relieving system pressure. Make sure the tubing is cut is straight, the edge is completely smooth, and the tube is rounded. Scratched, gouged, damaged, or oblong tubing end will leak. Re-insert the tubing into the push-pull fitting. Push tubing all the way in, then pull back gently, to check fit. Most push-pull fittings take about a ½” of tubing inserted into them.

Leaks from plastic fittings Plastic fittings should be firmly finger tightened. Under tightening can result in leaks, over tightening can crush the tubing and result in a water blockage. For plastic fittings only; make sure the plastic tubing has an insert in the tube end, and a feral (o-ring which compresses the tubing around the insert) in the plastic female fitting. Drain tubing does not need an insert.

No water from Tap Master™ RO System Make sure all valves are on the ON position. Check for over tightening of fittings. Eliminate possible blockage points by disconnecting each system

while drilling, and while under sink.

Using ½” masonry bit and variable speed corded power drill, slowly begin drilling through the porcelain. Drill bit should be perpendicular to sink. Failure to do so may cause the drill bit to slip and cause bodily injury, and/or property damage. Rinse & dry drill bit tip and sink area with cool water for every 20 seconds of drilling to prevent drill bit overheating and sink damage. Small localized flaking or chipping may occur. Use caution – drill bit may be very hot. DO NOT touch drill bit. Electrical hazard! DO NOT allow power drill electrical components to come into contact with water. Use caution – sink may be slippery.

When metal is struck, switch to ¼” metal bit with cobalt tip. Drill bit should be perpendicular to sink. Failure to do so may cause the drill bit to slip and cause bodily injury, and/or property damage. Begin drilling to drill a hole all the way through the sink. Rinse & dry drill bit tip and sink area with cool water for every 20 seconds of drilling to prevent drill bit overheating and sink damage. Small localized flaking or chipping may occur.

When ¼” hole is completely drilled through, switch to ½” metal drill bit w/ cobalt tip. Drill bit should be perpendicular to sink. Failure to do so may cause the drill bit to slip and cause bodily injury, and/or property damage. Begin drilling to enlarge the ¼” hole to ½” all the way through the sink. Use caution when hole is near completion to avoid damaging sink surface. Rinse & dry drill bit tip and sink area with cool water for every 20 seconds of drilling to prevent drill bit overheating and sink damage. Small localized flaking or chipping may occur.

When ½” hole is completely drilled through, install RO sink spigot with provided mounting hardware. For more details, see mounting instructions enclosed with hardware. See Fig. 3. Connect Tap Master™ to RO sink spigot using Speedfit® adapter as outlined later.

•Drilling hole for RO sink spigot – stainless steel sinks

WARNING: Read all instruction before attempting install. User assumes all liability.

Use caution – sink may be slippery.

Remove base cover plate from RO sink spigot packaging. Line-up base cover plate with other faucets. See Fig 1. Check underside of sink for spacing from trim, curvatures, and other obstacles. See Fig. 15. Don’t place spigot too close to obstacles - leave yourself enough room under the sink to use hand tools. Either right or left side of the sink is OK provided previous conditions are met. Mark center of base cover plate with marker. See Fig 2. Place paper towel underneath sink, below drilling site, to collect fillings. Wear protective eyewear and gear while drilling and while under sink.

Place ¼” metal bit with cobalt tip on the marked spot. Drill bit should be perpendicular to sink. Failure to do so may cause the drill bit to slip and cause bodily injury, and/or property damage. Begin drilling a hole all the way through the sink. Rinse & dry drill bit tip and sink area with cool water for every 30 seconds of drilling to prevent drill bit overheating. Use

caution – drill bit may be very hot. DO NOT touch drill bit. Electrical hazard! DO NOT
