The shampoo bowl is shipped directly from the manufacturer. It is possible that there may be
slight variations in bowls. If the 3-Stage Telescoping Drain system IS NOT adjusted properly
at installation, damage or breakage of the drain system may result - We have attached the
bracket on the 3-Stage Telescoping Drain system, but it must be properly adjusted during
installation.
IMPORTANT: Do not trim or alter the Telescopic Drain in any way. All components that make
up the Telescopic Drain Pipe Subassembly are integrated and work together. Altering its
design will cause premature if not total failure of the telescopic drain mechanism.

Now connect the bottom of the Drain Pipe Subassembly to the wastewater drain pipe using a
UPC approved PVC P-Trap (not supplied). Use appropriate plumbing methods to seal and secure
the P-trap to the drain and the roughed in 1 ½” waste drain.
Do not glue the P-Trap until you
conduct the Initial Testing Procedure noted below.
Keep in mind that the Riser Pipe telescopes up and down
within
the Drain Pipe Subassembly.
Consider proper alignment when performing the final connection of the P-Trap to the Drain Pipe
Subassembly and wastewater drainpipe. The Riser Pipe cannot be allowed to bind; the motion
should be smooth and continuous.
After P-Trap installation and proper alignment and smooth
action are achieved, connect the Riser Pipe to the basket strainer and tighten all associated
hardware. Care should be used so as to not cross thread the riser pipe nut onto the basket
strainer threads – make sure the brass screws on the drain are in alignment on each side of
the drain after the riser pipe nut has been tightened onto the basket
strainer

INITIAL TESTING PROCEDURE
•
Raise and lower the unit all the way up and down several times to be sure it is operating properly,
without binding
before and after
connecting it to the building drain.
•
IMPORTANT:
Be sure there is about ¼” total slack in the cable linkage system when the
unit is fully extended as described above. It is important that the lift system limits out prior
to the drain extending to its full range. Make any minor adjustments that are needed to
keep the lift system from binding and to ensure that the lift system limits out prior to the 3-
Stage Telescopic Drain Assembly extending to its full range. See photos on pages 7 and 8.
•
Now ensure that all of the parts are tightened securely and glue the 2” x 1½” PVC Reducer/
Coupling to the P-trap and wall drain. Care should be used to ensure you do NOT cause strain
or binding on the vertical 3-Stage Telescoping Drain Assembly.

Connect
the provided flexible Water Supply Lines to both the faucet and the water supply
shutoffs. Use care and good judgment when installing the flexible lines so they are free and
unobstructed when traveling with the elevating shampoo bowl.
