STEP

1 — INSTALL THE COLD WATER SUPPLY SADDLE VALVE (FIG. 2)

■ Install this valve on the COLD water pipe to the
kitchen sink (FIG. 2).

- HOW TO INSTALL YOUR HOME DRINKING WATER SYSTEM -

■ This valve has a cutting pin and will make its own

hole in copper or plastic pipe. To install on iron pipe,
you have to drill a 1/8” diameter hole for the cut­
ting pin.

DANGER (IF DRILLING PIPE): TO PROTECT

YOURSELF FROM SERIOUS INJURY OR FATAL
SHOCK, USE A HAND OR BATTERY POWERED

DRILL ONLY TO MAKE THE HOLE. DO NOT USE

AN ELECTRIC DRILL.

■ USE THE FOLLOWING GUIDES TO INSTALL:

1. Close the house main water supply valve. Open

a high and low faucet in the house to drain water

from the pipes.

2. Looking at FIG. 2, if not already done, turn the
valve into clamp A and tighten. Turn the valve han­
dle all the way out.

NOTE: If you have to drill a 1/8” diameter hole, hold

the valve with clamp A up to the pipe and mark the

spot to drill. BEFORE DRILLING, READ THE
DANGER NOTE ABOVE.

3. Place the seal on the inside of clamp A as shown.

Locate clamp A (turn handle in to align pin if pre-

drilied hole) and clamp B on the pipe. Fasten in

place using 2 screws. Tighten each screw evenly,

but do not overtighten and crush the pipe.

4. Turn the valve handle inward to make a hole in

the copper or plastic pipe.

DO NOT TURN ON THE WATER SUPPLY AT THIS

TIME.

NOTE: BE SURE THE VALVE HANDLE PACKING
NUT IS TIGHT.

STEP 2

— INSTALL THE DRAIN ADAPTER

■ Before beginning, be sure to read the note on

page 5.

■ The drain adapter fits 1-1/2” sink drain pipe.

■ The adapter installs directly onto the sink tail­

piece as typically shown in fig. A and B.

■ Locate so drain tubing from the faucet (FIG. 7,

page 10) makes a straight run to the adapter,

with­

out dips, loops, low spots or kinks.
