Installation Guide

Step 6    

Install the Drain Saddle Assembly

The drain assembly should be installed above the 

P-trap on the vertical or horizontal tailpiece.

A.

 Position the drain saddle in the desired location, 

mark the spot to be drilled, and remove the saddle.

(See Figure 7).

B.

 Drill a 7/16-inch hole through one side of the 

drain pipe only.

C.

 Peel off the paper backing from the drain gasket 

and apply the gasket to the “port” connection of the 

drain saddle. (See Figure 8). Make sure to align the 

drain saddle to the drilled hole. Attach the drain saddle 

to the drain pipe and tighten the two screws evenly.

D.

 Cut the 3/8-inch black tube to the desired length 

and connect to the drain saddle with the provided 

locking clip.

Note:

 State and local plumbing codes may prohibit 

the use of saddle valve connections.

Step 7    

Connecting the Tubing Procedure

A.

 To connect the tubing, remove the red locking clip and wet the 

end of the tubing with water. Then insert the tube into the plastic 

bushing approximately 1/2-inch (1.3 cm) deep and replace the 

locking clip to secure the tubing in place.

 

B.

 To disconnect the tubing, remove the locking clip, and press 

the plastic bushing, then pull the tube out of the plastic bushing.

Step 8    

Install Filtration Cartridges and 

Rinsing Cap

A.

  Put on clean latex gloves to help prevent hand contact. Rotate 

the  plastic  fasteners  90°  counterclockwise  to  remove  the  filter 

cartridge.

B.

 Remove rinsing caps (3 pcs.) that is located under the 

decorative cover. (See Figure 10). Install in positions 1, 2 and 4. 

(See Table 1).

C.

 Remove the protective film and transportation caps from the 

filtration cartridge.

Note:

 Ensure that the inner surfaces of the flanges are clean. If 

the flanges are not clean, rinse the flanges with tap water.

Caution:

 Do not touch the filter(s) with your bare hands. Peel the 

wrapper and use as a sleeve to prevent contamination. Lubricate 

O-Rings with glycerin. Never use a petroleum-based lubricant where 

it can contact the O-Rings.

D.

 Install the cartridges in the “Rinsing” position according to the numbered locking buttons located on the 

sides of the manifolds. (See Table 1).

E.

 Insert cartridges one by one into the appropriate positions and turn right until they click.

F.

 To disconnect the cartridge, press the locking button and turn the cartridge left until it disconnects.

Positions of the Filtration Cartridge

When filter cartridges are in the “Working” position, ensure that the number of each filter cartridge matches the 

locking button number. The tops of each filter cartridge match the color of each locking button. Refer to Table 1 

to place the filter cartridges in the “Rinsing” position.
