Installation for Top Access
If service access to Water Rainbow plumbing under the rim is not possible, it is possible to install the spout so that it can be replaced at a later date (if necessary) from the top of the rim. To do this, allow at least 2" of flexibility in the piping so it can be pulled up through the rim. Use a compression fitting or union at the connection of the pipe exten- sion to allow disconnection without rotating the fill spout. If a compression fitting is not used, make sure there is a space of at least 6" from the back of the Water Rainbow to the wall, so the spout can be rotated to unscrew it from the piping. (See il- lustration M.)
To remove the fill spout from the top of the bath, first pry off the cover. Do not use sharp tools! Then remove the two larger screws and pull the spout up.
Faucet Valve Replacement
Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath has provided a special wrench with which to change the cylinder valve assembly under the water supply handles should it require replacement. Keep this tool in a safe place for use at a later date. To replace the cylinder valve and the seat assembly, first turn off the water supply, then pry the insert from the square handle. Next, remove the Phillips screw securing the handle and remove the handle. Place the wrench on the bonnet and turn it counterclockwise. Next, remove the bonnet, leaving it in the wrench.
Note the position of the valve cylinder stop before removing the cylinder. Now use pliers to pull the valve cylinder stem out of the body, then slip the replacement cylinder unit into the body so that stops of both faucets are positioned downward, toward the bottom of the bath allowing rotation in the same direction.
Secure the bonnet in place with the wrench. Re- place the handle and the screw. Snap the insert into place. (See illustration N.) The above faucet replacement parts are available from your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer.
