Rough In
1. Ensure that the in-wall nogging depth is correct and that the nogging is plumb. Position
the noggin such that the front face of the noggin is
62mm
behind the
front face
of the
finished tiled surface
. (note that there is a maximum of
± 8mm adjustment
at fit off).
See diagram A
2. Fix the body to the stud with the
Mixer to the right
and
outlet to the left
,
See diagram
B
3. Connect the Hot supply to the inlet port on the bottom marked “H” and the Cold supply
to the top Inlet marked “C”.
4. Once plumbing is all connected pressure test the system.
Do not exceed 500kpa
pressure testing
whether dynamic or static. Testing over 500 kpa will void the
warranty for this product.
5. The mixer body is fitted with a black shroud (also a tile guide) and the outlet with a
clear plastic sleeve, these should always remain in place. The red dust cover may be
removed for testing, but otherwise should remain in place.
6. Wall sheeting and tiling can be laid
close to the shroud
and waterproofing membrane
and grout can be adhered to the shroud.
7. An indicator on the end of the shroud shows the range that can be accommodated at fit
off for the finished tile face position.
8. When tiling, note that the dress ring is
51mm diameter
, so be sure to tile close to the
shroud so there are no gaps showing after fit off.
See diagram C
Mixer Fit Off
1. Remove excess tile grout from around the shroud to allow a flush fitment of the cover
ring.
2. Remove the red dust cap and use a sharp knife to cut away the black shroud that
protrudes past the finished tile surface and ensure that the area around the shroud is
flat and free of protrusions.
3. Place the red fiber washer onto the locking sleeve and screw the sleeve onto the body
until up against the tiles. Nip up gently being careful not to damage or crack the tiles.
See diagram C
4. Note that there are 2
splined adaptors
supplied. For shallower installations use the
shorter adaptor, for deeper installations use the longer adaptor. (tip, if you had to cut off
more than 8mm of black plastic shroud, use the short adaptor, if you cut off less than
8mm of shroud use the long adaptor)
5. Note that the valve spline and the adaptor spline have
un-splined segments
it is
important that these
properly mesh
and align when the adaptor is fitted.
6. Ensure that the valve is in the off position (all the way anticlockwise), then fit the
adaptor to the valve spline such that one of the
milled slots is facing up
and the other
to the right.
7. Ensure that the adaptor is oriented such that the grooved face is facing out.
See
diagram D
8. Press the adaptor all the way on and fasten in place with the hex drive screw provided.
9. Note that the dress ring includes indication markings. Place the ring over the locking
sleeve and position such that the “I” symbol is facing the top, then loosely fit the 3
attachment screws.
10. To ensure that the dress ring is perfectly concentric to the valve, we have supplied a
round plastic
Concentricity spacer
. Slide this over the adaptor and locate it into the
cover ring, then fasten the ring in place ensuring the “I” symbol is to the top.
11. Remove and discard the concentricity spacer.
12. Note that there is a pre inserted grub screw in the handle that just protrudes into the
bore.
13. Place the black
slip ring
onto the step machined in the back of the handle then press
the handle onto the tap with the
wave form
to the
top.
The handle should slide over the
adaptor with the grub screw engaging in the slot.
14. The handle should slide on until it presses smoothly up to the dress ring, square and flat.
15. To fasten
, rotate the handle through
90 degrees clockwise
until the waveform passes
over the
small fastening hole
in the dress ring. Inters the allen key through the hole and
tighten the handle by fastening the grub screw onto the adaptor.
16. The handle should now operate smoothly and freely to control the tap through 180
degrees (half a turn)
17. Progressive valves open clockwise, over the first 90 degrees of rotation the cold water
opens to full flow, then from 90-180 degrees the valve goes from warm to hot.
18. Thoroughly check operation and seek assistance from Faucet Strommen should anything
not be functioning to expectation.
Spout Fit Off
1. Cut off what protrudes of the clear plastic sleeve around the outlet thread
2. Remove the black cap off the outlet thread and apply a suitable amount of thread tape.
3. Press the flange over the outlet and screw the outlet onto the thread until close to the
wall, then press the flange up against the wall.
