PREPARING THE HOUSING

IV.A. Attaching the Bracket to the Unit

Multi-Pure units are shipped with the connecting adapters appropriate for your Multi-
Pure Drinking Water System. The following shows the adapters that are shipped with
the various units. You will receive one INLET adapter and one OUTLET adapter. Now
is the time to attach the adapters to the housing top.

Blue Tubing connects the drinking water faucet to the OUTLET port on the housing.
Clear Tubing connects the plumbing to the INLET port on the housing.

1. Connect the appropriate adapter to the OUTLET port on the housing by turning

clockwise. Tighten by hand and then give one to two more turns with a wrench.

2. Connect the INLET adapter or shut-off valve to the INLET opening on the unit

housing by turning clockwise. Tighten by hand and then give one to two extra
turns with a wrench. Connect the Elbow Stem (MC1413) to the Straight Adapter
(MC730) by inserting the nipple on the Stem into the small hole in the top of the
straight adapter. Push the Elbow Stem until you feel resistance -- at this point,
the stem is not fully inserted. Push firmly until the stem is inserted as far as it
will go.

Attaching the Adapters to the Housing

The MP880SB Drinking Water System has a round bottom and may be left lying on the cabinet floor or mounted on the
wall under your sink. The unit will work in any position; however, be sure to provide sufficient tubing for conveniently
changing the filter when it is time to replace it.

The unit weighs approximately 7.5 pounds with a dry filter; even more when the filter is wet. If you mount the unit on the
wall under your sink, please confirm that the wall will support the weight. To mount your unit, use the all-purpose bracket
(MC129 - #16) included in the shipment.

1. Before installing the Bracket under your sink, confirm that you have enough room to

remove the stainless steel housing from the bracket to change the filter cartridge.

2. Position the bracket so that you will be able to get to it when needed. Hold the

bracket in place and mark the spot for the top screws (keyhole side is the top).
Fasten the bracket with ONLY the top screws. Do not fasten the screws tight
against the bracket -- leave enough space to hang and later remove the bracket
from the screws. Use only the top screws; do not install screws in the bottom holes.
Once the top screws are in place, install the bands. Remove the bracket from the
screw by lifting it straight up so that screw is lined up with the large end of the
keyhole and then remove the bracket.

3. To install the bracket bands with worm screws around the top of your stainless steel

housing, first unscrew the worm clamp by turning the screw, using a slotted
screwdriver, counter clockwise until it is fully open.

4. Thread each band through the two slots on the bracket. There will be one for the top

slot and one for the bottom slot. Both are needed for strength. To secure the top
band, slide the slotted end of the band through the slots on both sides of the bracket.
Thread the band from the front of the bracket, through the slot on one side and
across the backside through the slot on the other side. Then do the same with the
bottom band.

5. Install the bands around the housing top -- above the V-Band. Position the slotted end of the band at the mouth of the

worm clamp opening. Then turn clockwise the screw of the worm clamp; as you turn the screw, the band will close
around the housing top. Tighten until the band is secure around the lid. Repeat for the second band.

6. Attach the bracket and unit to the wall by “hanging” the bracket on the two screws you installed (step #2) by inserting

the screws through the larger hole of the keyhole and slide up into the top, smaller hole, of the keyhole. Confirm that
both sides of the bracket are held by the screws before releasing the housing.
