DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-
PORCELAIN SINK. If you have an all-porcelain sink,
mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer hole or drill through
countertop next to sink.
When drilling through a countertop make sure the
area below the drilled area is free of wiring and piping.
Make certain there is ample room to make the proper con-
nections to the bottom of the faucet. Do not drill through a
countertop that is more than 25mm (1-inch) thick.
DO NOT ATTEMPT to drill through a tiled, marble,
granite or similar countertop. Consult a plumber or the
countertop manufacturer for advice or assistance.
(a)
Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal
shavings, parts, or tools from falling down drain.
(B)
Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to pre-
vent scratches if drill bit slips.
(C)
Mark hole with center punch. Use a 6mm (l/4-inch)
drill bit for a pilot hole, then, using a 13mm (3/4- inch) drill
bit or hole saw, drill a hole completely through the sink.
Smooth rough edges with a file.

Mounting the Faucet (diagram 3)
(a)
Remove wing nut

and metal washer
(B)
from the
threaded shaft of the faucet. Leave the black rubber
washer (A) on the threaded shaft.
(B)
Slide the threaded shaft of the faucet into drilled hole.
(c)
From under the sink, slide the metal washer on and
thread on the wing nut. Tighten wing nut by hand until
tight. It may be necessary to have a second person hold
the faucet while tightening the wing nut.
NOTE: Do not over tighten the wing nut. Hand tighten
only. Do not use pliers or wrench to tighten.

note: Allow 38 mm (1.5 inches) clearance below system
to enable filter cartridge changes.
(B)
Install mounting screws at least 380 mm (15-inches)
from cabinet floor and 235 mm (9 1/4 inches) apart. Leave
enough space [approximately 13 mm (l/2-inch) between
the head of the screw and the wall to slip system onto
screws.
(c)
Place system over screws on wall and slide sideways.
Tighten screws.

Connecting the Faucet (diagrams on page 3)
CAUTION
:
Do not over-tighten compression nut. Use caution not to bend or crimp tubes when securing.
(A)
Locate compression nuts in installation kit and faucet package.
(B)
Attach compression nuts to faucet stem and Effective Life Indicator (ELI) and hand tighten. Then loosen
compression nut one full turn.
NOTE:
If the compression nut should come apart, reference diagram 5A for correct reassembly.
6.
Attaching Tube
(A)
Attach tube to compression nut on faucet stem by inserting tube into the compression nut opening. Gently
push the tubing until it comes to a stop.
CAUTION:
Tube must be fully inserted in the compress on fitting base to the tube stop on the faucet
stem and on the outlet stem of the ELI.
(B)
Turn the nut hand tight.
(C)
Wrench tighten the nut 1 to 2 turns.
NOTE
:
All nuts must be retightened when the system reaches projected operating temperature.
NOTE
:
A squeaking sound when tightening the nut is normal. If fittings are removed, Teflon® tape must
be used for pipe threaded connections.
NOTE:
Compression nut should come preassembled with ferrules inside. If nut should come apart, see
figure 5A for proper reassembly.
(D)
Determine the length of tubing needed from the faucet to the ELI and cut the tubing. A slight sag in the
lines will allow for some ease in installation. Insert the tubing into the compression nut on the ELI. Repeat
steps 6B and 6C.
7.
Connecting the Saddle Valve
(A)
Determine the length of plastic tubing needed to connect the inlet (left) side of the filter with the saddle
valve. Be sure to allow enough tubing to prevent kinking and cut the tubing squarely. Slide brass
compression nut onto tubing, followed by plastic ferrule. The long, tapered end of the ferrule should face
towards the end of the tubing. Place insert into end of tubing.
(B)
Insert tubing into saddle valve and hand-tighten compression nut. Using a wrench tighten nut 1 to 1
turns.
