Cartridge Reversal and Reassembly:

 

a. Inspect valve cartridge

 

22

 ensuring that 'D' 

shaped grooves have cartridge screen O-rings 

23

 in them and that stainless steel screens

 

24 

are seated. See 

Figure 8.

b.  Insert cartridge

 

22

 into valve body. Ensure the 'H' 

(see detail) on the side of cartridge housing is on 
the cold water supply side of valve casting. 

 This is so when the 

cartridge is installed, it seats in the valve casting 
and cartridge will not rotate. See 

Figures 9 and 

10

c. With valve stem O-ring

 

25

 assembled onto valve 

stem

 

21

, slide valve stem

 

21

 onto cartridge stem 

while holding in place. See 

Figure 11

.

 d. Inspect valve bonnet set screw

 

19

 and ensure it 

is in the backed out position. Slide bonnet O-ring 

26

 

over threaded area on bonnet 

20 

and seat in 

groove. See 

Figure 11

NOTE: 

For optional 

Lever Handle, slide O-ring 

26

 into groove on the 

top of

 

bonnet

 

20

.

 e. Thread valve bonnet

 

20

 into valve casting 

turning clockwise. Apply pressure on top of stem 
while screwing valve bonnet

 

20

 into place. This 

will keep cartridge from slipping out of slot while 
bonnet is threaded into place. Tighten valve 
bonnet

 

20

 onto valve body firmly (180 In-Lbs). 

Tighten set screw

 

19

 with 1/16” Allen wrench 

firmly  (75 In Oz). This will prevent valve bonnet

 

20

 from coming loose during use. See 

Figure 11.

Take 

note of the rib on the bottom of cartridge 

22

 

(between the screens) and the slot in the bottom 
of valve body are aligned.
