- STEP 2: INSTALL DRAIN ADAPTER -
•Note: Running the drain tubing directly to a floor
drain, sump, standpipe, laundry tub, etc., as shown
on page 18, is preferred. However, if that is not pos-

plumbing codes. Other drain pipe fittings, in addi- tion to the adapter, may be needed.
•The drain adapter fits
•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.
Note: Consult a plumber if you are not familiar with
plumbing procedures.
