6. ADJUSTMENTS AND OPERATIONS

OF SINGLE FLUSH TOILETS

The fill valve is preset at the factory. When
replacing the fill valve check for correct float
cup height (see figure 4) per volume as listed
in the table. It is important that the water
level is adjusted to the waterline indicated on
the overflow tube (Fig. 4).

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Poor Flush.

A. Adjust the tank water level to the marked water line on overflow tube.
B. Make sure water supply valve is fully open.
C. For dual flush, make sure the push button rods are in place and are activating the dual flush

assembly. Adjust as needed.

2. Tank takes a long time to fill.

A. Make sure water supply valve is fully open.
B. Clean any residue from the inlet valve, in-line filter, dual flush cartridge assembly or supply line. Flush

the lines to clear any debris.

C. Check water pressure supply, operating range is 20-80 PSI.

3. Water level too high or too low.

A. Adjust the float adjustment screw or float cup.

4. Fill valve fails to shut off or fails to fill tank.

A. Verify water supply is on.
B. Filter screen is clogged. Clean filter screen.
C. Verify refill hose is not obstructed or kinked.

5. Noisy tank water refill.

A. Adjust the water supply line if water pressure is to high.
B. Clean any residue from the inlet valve or supply line. Flush the lines to clear any debris.

6. Bowl water continues to flow or tank refill water won’t shut off.

A. Flapper is not seating properly. Adjust chain slack between flapper and flapper valve.
B. Flush handle extension is being restricted. Repair or replace flush handle assembly.
C. Clean area of debris and check for any wearing around the flapper or dual flush valve seat on opening

to allow seal.

D. For dual flush, adjust the push button rods for proper slack, so the fill valve seal is not held off the

flush valve.

7. Handle/dual flush button does not activate plunger.

A. Adjust chain linkage.
B. Check arm for breakage. Replace if necessary.
C. Check push button rods for breakage or adjustment.

8. If the water rises in bowl during the flush and stays there, or drains slowly.

A. Ensure that the chain connected to flapper is adjusted properly. Too much slack will result in the

flapper closing too soon, not enough slack will result in not seating properly and leaking. There should
be enough slack to allow the flapper to seat properly.

B. Check the plumbing system venting. Fill a basin near the location of the toilet and open the drain.

If the water drains quickly with no visible problem, there is no venting problem. If there is a venting
problem the sluggish/poor performance is not a fixture problem.

9. Leaking tanks.

A. Check flapper and flapper seat in tank for warping or degradation. Many cleaning chemicals

commonly used in tanks contain chlorine that attacks these parts causing warping and
degradation.

B. Check tank for cracks. If cracked the tank must be replaced.
C. Check tank bolts. Rubber washers may be corroded or bolts may be loose. Replace or tighten

as necessary.
NOTE: be careful not to overtighten nuts on tank as this may result in cracking the tank.

D. Check for condensation. Very cold water can generate condensation in high temperature and

humid areas in unlined tanks.

CAUTION: Do not use in-tank cleaners. Products containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite) can seriously
damage the fittings in your tank. This damage can cause leakage and property damage.

7. FILTER CLEANING

For small adjustments, turn the adjustment screw
located on float adjustment (Fig 5).
Test flush the toilet several times to ensure
proper operation. If flapper ball doesn’t seat or
lift properly when flushed, adjust the flapper
chain length by repositioning the chain hook on
the chain.
