Install the Drain Saddle Assembly
The drain assembly should be installed above the P-trap on the vertical or horizontal tailpiece.
(See Figure 10.)
A. Position the drain saddle in the desired
location, mark the spot to be drilled, and
remove the saddle. (See Figure 11.)
B. Drill a 7/16-inch hole through one side of drain
pipe only.
C. Peel off the white backing from the drain
gasket and apply the gasket to the “port”
connection of the drain saddle (See Figure 15).
Make sure to align the drain saddle to the
drilled hole. Attach the drain saddle to the
drain pipe and tighten the two screws eve
D. Cut the 3/8-inch black tube to desired length
and connect to the drain saddle with the
provided clip. (See Figure 2)
