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 tap.
FIG. 01
Remove the protection covers (1.A) using a
screwdriver. Use the plug (1.B) if necessary.
FIG. 02
Fit the tap body to the wall with the shower outlet
pointing upwards, connect the hot water supply
to the left inlet and the cold water supply to the
right one.
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
(2.A).
Once all connections have been carried out,
activate the tap 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 (2.A) to check if there
are leakages and if the system works regularly,
reinstall the protection cover (2.A) and finish the
external wall surface.
FIG. 03
Remove the protection cover (2.A) as shown in
FIG. 02. With a screwdriver turn the stop cocks
(3.F) clockwise, loosen the fitting screw (3.E)
using the proper wrench and pull out the test plug
(3.D). Install the o-ring (3.C) and the sleeve (3.B)
on the thermostatic body. Use a small quantity of
the special grease included to lightly lubricate the
o-rings of the thermostatic cartridge (3.A). Insert
the cartridge in the tap housing carefully aligning
the positioning hole with the housing of the fitting
screw (3.E), then tighten the latter.
Warning!
, Do not force the screw (3.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 (3.F) in anti-clockwise direction.
FIG. 04
Remove the protection tape of the adhesive
sponge (4.C) and apply it on the back of the plate
(4.B).
Fit the sliding flat washer (4.A) on the plate (4.B)
and install it on the thermostatic body till it is flush
to the wall.
FIG. 05
To install the handle, follow the instructions given
below: screw the peg (5.E) on the thermostatic
cartridge bar inserting the spacer (5.F) and
assemble the handle (5.A) positioning the ring
(5.D) in between without moving the bar so as to
not compromise the cartridge calibration. Tighten
the grub screw (5.B) and fit the finishing cap (5.C).
FIG. 06
To replace only the handle (6.F) follow the
instructions given below:
Remove the cap (6.E), loosen the grub screw (6.D)
and pull out the handle (6.F).
DO NOT move the cartridge bar (6.M) so as to
not compromise the calibration.
Reassemble the new handle (6.F) and lock it with
the grub screw (6.D), complete by inserting the
cap (6.E).
To replace the thermostatic cartridge (6.M), pull
