-- STEP 3: INSTALL FAUCET (cont.)--

B. ASSEMBLE FAUCET
1.
If not already assembled, install the rubber washer,

spacer, flat (or lock) washer and hex nut onto the

threaded faucet stud.
2. Apply Teflon tape to the end of the faucet stud.

Turn the tubing adapter with a blue collet onto the

stud and hand tighten, then wrench 1/4 turn only.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO CROSS THREAD.
3. Wet the o-ring seals on the faucet spout. Then, re-

move and discard the short piece of tubing from the

faucet body and insert the spout in it’s place.
4. CONNECT TUBING TO FAUCET AS FOLLOWS.

a. Take the separate length of 3/8” black tubing

and, putting end through the larger hole in the rub-

ber washer, slide end onto the larger barb fitting on

the bottom of the faucet.

Note: To soften end of tubing, hold under hot water.

b. Route 1/4” red tubing from RO up through the

sink hole and slide end onto the smaller barb fitting

(heat end if needed) on the faucet.
c. Route 3/8”blue tubing from RO up through the

sink hole and push end all the way into the tubing

adapter fitting on the bottom of the faucet. Pull on

the tubing to be sure it’s held firmly in the adapter

fitting. See pages 12 and 13 for tubing connection

instructions.

5. Lower the faucet into the sink or countertop hole.
6. On the underside of the sink or countertop, insert

the large steel washer between the mounting hole

and the spacer on the faucet stud (see assembled

view). Then, turn the hex nut up to the spacer and

tighten. Tighten the hex nut so the faucet can not

move, but do not overtighten and break the faucet.

-- STEP 4: INSTALL RO

ASSEMBLY --

Hang the assembly on the included hanger washers,

or lay on the cabinet floor, as desired.
1. Refer to FIG. 7 for wall mounting. Hold the assem-

bly up to the wall surface and mark locations for the

hanger washers. Indicator marks on top of the brack-

et are the needed 10-1/2” apart.
2. Install hanger washers at least 15-1/2”up from the

cabinet floor, allowing room to remove sumps from

filter heads. Wood screws are provided, or obtain

other fasteners as needed.
