Tank and Valve
Installation Instructions

1. INSTALL TOILET TANK TO BOWL

Turn the tank upside down and rest on protective
padding. Install the tank gasket over the bottom
threads of the flush valve, making sure that the
tank gasket covers the flush valve nut and the
tapered side is toward the bowl.

Lift the tank, right side up and position the tank on
the bowl by centering the gasket and aligning holes
on the bowl. Install tank bolts with included rubber
washers tapered side down, through tank mounting
spacers and bowl. Secure with metal washers and
nuts (see illustration). Tighten bolts alternately enough
to achieve a watertight seal.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

2. INSTALL REFILL TUBE

With the valve installed, the critical level mark on the fill valve (identified by a CL mark) should be at
least 1” (25 mm) above the top of the water level. Water temperature should be in the range of 45º F (2º
C). Water supply static pressure range: 20psi-80psi.

DO NOT USE CHLORINE OR ANY CHEMICAL COMPONENT. USE OF SUCH PRODUCTS WILL RESULT IN
TANK DAMAGE, MAY CAUSE FLOODING, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND WILL VOID WARRANTY. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN NUTS, TANK OR BOWL.

3. INSTALL DUAL FLUSH BUTTON TO TANK

Insert button assembly through top of tank lid.
The buttons should be rotated so the smaller blue
button is aligned with the blue button on the flush
valve.

Securely tighten nut.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN

To ensure both buttons flush correctly, the bottom of
each push rod must be flush with the top surface of
the flush valve cylinder. If rods are not
flush, adjust the length of each rod by
loosening adjustment nut and re-adjust
the push rod. Tighten lock nuts after
any adjustments.
NOTE: Dual flush valve assembly in tank
is factory installed.

4. ADJUSTMENTS AND OPERATIONS OF DUAL FLUSH TOILETS

Make sure the water level is at the marked water line. Test flush the toilet several times to ensure proper
operation. If dual flush valve does not operate properly, improve flush by:

• Verifying the bottom of each push rod is flush with the top surface of the dual flush valve cylinders.
• Adjusting the water level with the fill valve
• Adjusting the flush volume as in the next step
• When replacing the fill valve, check for the correct float cup height as shown in the figure.
