2. Install the New Toilet

Install or relocate the supply and outlet as necessary to conform
to the roughing-in dimensions.

Install a supply shut-off valve.

Lay the toilet down onto a padded surface.

From the bottom of the toilet, firmly press a new wax seal around
the toilet outlet.

Remove the temporary rag (if used) from the toilet flange hole.

Align and lower the toilet over the flange and T-bolts.

IMPORTANT!

Do not lift or rock the bowl after placement. If you

break the watertight seal, you must install a new wax seal.

Apply your full body weight around the toilet to set the seal.

Place the bolt cap bases over the T-bolts in the

″up″ position as

marked.

Place the washers and nuts on the bolt cap bases and T-bolts.

IMPORTANT! Do not overtighten the nut.

Overtightening may

cause breakage or chipping of vitreous china.

Carefully tighten the nuts.

IMPORTANT! Risk of product damage.

Protect the vitreous china

from the saw blade when cutting off excess T-bolt length.
