INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
In case of pressures over 5 BAR (~75 PSI), we
recommend to use a pressure reducer.
Before proceeding with the assembly, purge the
hot and cold water pipes so as to avoid the
accumulation of dirt and impurities that could
affect the function of the faucet.
FIG. 01
Remove the protection covers (1.A) using a
screwdriver. Use the plug (1.B) if necessary.
FIG. 02
Fit the faucet body (2.A) to the wall with the
two upper outlets pointing towards the flow
elements. Connect the hot water supply to the
left inlet and the cold water supply to the right
one.
FIG. 03
The depth of the wall niche must correspond
(wall coating included) to the tolerance given
by the MIN/MAX references given on the
plastic cover (3.A).
Once all connections have been carried out,
activate the faucet at the working pressure
(we recommend maintaining the water flow
for a few minutes so as to purge the system
from any debris and/or dirt inside the piping).
Temporarily remove the protection cover (3.A)
to check if there are leakages and if the system
works regularly, reinstall the protection cover
(3.A) and finish the external wall surface.
FIG. 04
Remove the protection cover (3.A) as shown
in FIG. 03. With a screwdriver fasten the stop
cocks (4.F) in clockwise direction, loosen the
fitting screw (4.E) using the proper wrench
and pull out the test plug (4.D). Insert the o-ring
(4.C) and the sleeve (4.B) on the thermostatic
body. Use a small quantity of the special grease
included to lightly lubricate the o-rings of the
thermostatic cartridge (4.A). Insert the cartridge
in the faucet housing carefully aligning the
positioning hole with the housing of the fitting
screw (4.E), then tighten the latter.
Warning!
Do
not force the screw (4.E). Excessive tightening
can affect the correct function of the system
or damage it. The thermostatic cartridge is
equipped with a safety anti-scalding retainer set
at 100°F (38°C). For higher temperatures push
the button on the adjustment handle. In case of
hot or cold water pressure failure, the flow will
automatically stop. With a screwdriver loosen
the stop cocks (4.F) in anti-clockwise direction.
FIG. 05
Remove the protection tape of the adhesive
sponge (5.D) and apply it on the back of the
plate (5.C).
Fit the sliding flat washers (5.B) and (5.A) on
the plate (5.C) and install it on the thermostatic
body till it is flush to the wall.
FIG. 06
Control handles installation.
For the upper portion with the cartridge, follow
the instructions given below:
Fit the insert (6.L) on the bar of the cartridge
so as to obtain the correct alignment once the
handle (6.F) has been installed and lock using
the screw included (6.I). Fit the handle (6.F)
and tighten the grub screw (6.G). Complete by
positioning the finishing lever (6.H).
For the lower portion with the thermostatic
cartridge, follow the instructions given below:
fasten the peg (6.E) on the bar of the thermostatic
cartridge and install the handle (6.A) putting the
ring (6.D) in between without moving the bar so
as to not compromise the cartridge calibration.
Tighten the grub screw (6.B) and place the
finishing cap (6.C).
FIG. 07
To replace only the handle (7.A) follow the
instructions given below: Remove the lever
(7.C), loosen the grub screw (7.B) and pull
out the handle (7.A). Install the new handle
(7.A) and fasten it using the grub screw (7.B),
complete by inserting the lever (7.C).
