Using a scribe tool or awl, mark the center points

for all holes, then remove the template.

Drill holes from the fi nished surface side of the

unit carefully, being sure they are the proper size.
We recommend that you drill pilot holes and then
use the recommended drill size. For best results,
begin drilling at slow speed, then use high speed.
Appropriate sizes of hole saws will be needed for
this.

Clean up dust particles using a soft cloth damp-

ened with water or isopropyl alcohol and discard
the cloth.

Mounting the Fill Spout

Apply a 3/16" bead of silicone sealant (not pro-

vided) on the shell surface around the holes just
drilled in the shell. (See illustration D.)

Align the fi ll spout holes with the holes just drilled

and insert the threaded pipe extension through
the shell.

Fully install the 1/4-20 hex nuts onto the 1/4-20 x

1-1/2" hex bolts provided, then install the large fl at
washer onto the bolts. Insert the bolts through the
shell (from under the rim) and into the brass inserts
in the fi ll spout body. Finger tighten the hex nuts
against the washer, then tighten until snug using
a 7/16" wrench. Do not over tighten. Refer to
illustration D.

Remove excess sealant using damp cloth.

Mounting the Valves

Apply a 1/8" bead of silicone sealant (not provided)
around each hole on the rim surface. Insert each
faucet valve assembly through the holes, aligning
the ribs on each valve body with the notches in the
holes. (See illustration E.) Using a piece of 2" I.D.
x 3" L PVC piping (if available), push the speednut
over the tubing and onto the valve body (while
continuing to hold the valve body at the top) until
the speednut is in full contact with the underside
of the shell. (See illustration F.)
