Installation and Adjustment of the Rotational Limit Stop
A. B.
Place the temperature control knob (1) on
volume handle and rotate to the mixed position
(if required). DO NOT SECURE WITH
SCREW. Turn on water supplies; let the water
run until both hot and cold water is as hot/cold
as possible. Place thermometer in a plastic
tumbler, and hold the tumbler in the water
stream. Record the temperature reading.
If the water temperature is above 120°F, remove
the temperature control knob (1) and rotate the
limit stop (2) clockwise one tooth for every 4°F
- 6°F (approximate) change in temperature. If
water temperature is cooler than desired, rotate
the limit stop counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT:
The first position of the Rotational
Limit Stop (the Limiter) is that position that
restricts the rotation of the stem the most and is
at the maximum clockwise setting. According to
industry standards, the maximum allowable
temperature of the water exiting from the valve
is 120
o
F. This temperature may vary in your local
area. The Rotational Limit Stop may need to be
readjusted if the inlet water temperature changes.
For instance, during the winter, the cold water
temperature is colder than it is during the summer
which could result in varying outlet temperatures.
Typical temperature for a comfortable bath or
shower is between 90 o –110 o F.

Potential scald or thermal shock injury could result due to cross flow if outlet at the shower is
blocked or restricted (e.g., pause control on showerhead). Be sure to point showerhead away
from you when re-starting flow or install inlet check valves on both supply lines to prevent
possible injury.
