WATER CONNECTION

1.Before connecting the water supply, flush the line into a bucket to remove any debris.

2.Place the coupling nut, friction washer and universal washer onto the plain end of supply tube as shown.

NOTE: The same universal washer will be used to make the flanged slip-joint connection for a 1/2" O.D. or 3/8" flexible, or a 3/8" I.P.S. supply.

3. Temporarily make connection to tank supply shank, finger-tight. Mark at shut-off valve the tube length needed and add 1/4". (This will insert down into shut- off valve).

4.Remove supply tube and cut to length including the extra 1/4". Remove any burrs from inside the cut end. Slip compression nut and ring (ferrule) onto the shut-off valve end of the tubing.

5. Connect supply tube to supply shank once more and finger-tighten. Tubing may be pushed up into tank

supply to allow the extra 1/4" to be inserted into shut-off valve.

6.Tighten both the coupling nut at the tank and the compression nut at the shut-off valve. Make sure float valve does not rotate while tightening the coupling nut. The float ball must not contact the tank walls.

7.Turn on water supply and shut-off valve. Check for leaks. An additional tightening adjustment on leaking connections normally will stop the leak.

Turn the water level adjustment screw clockwise to lower or counter-clockwise to raise the water level to the waterline mark on the tank.

2.TANK REFILL

Turn Flow Control screw clockwise to slow or counter-clockwise to speed-up the rate of tank fill.

The length of the chain that connects the lever arm to the flapper may need to be adjusted. (Move the hook to another link)

A)TOO MUCH SLACK may not permit the flapper to lift far enough to properly activate the flush valve.

B)NOT ENOUGH SLACK in the chain may keep the flapper from closing properly.

3.REFILL TUBE

Make sure the refill tube is properly inserted in the top of the flush valve.
