Installation
Flush piping system prior and after installation of faucet
thoroughly!
Mount sink faucet, see fold-out page III, Fig. [1].
Refer to the dimensional drawing on fold-out page I.
Feed the spray hose (A) through the faucet body from above, see
Fig. [1].
Note:
If brace (B) is omitted, deck thickness can be increased by 1 3/4" to
a total of 2 3/8".
Connect sink faucet, see Figs. [1] and [2].
- Cold water connection (marked blue) = right
- Hot water connection (marked red) = left
Avoid cross connection. The cartridge is not reversible.
Connect the spray hose (A), see Fig. [3].
1. Connect the handspray (C) without using any additional seals.
2. Fit one side of the stop (D) and spring (E) over the spray
hose (A) from below.
3. Pass the end of the spray hose (A) through the other hole in the
stop (D).
4. Install the snap coupling (G) on the end of the spray hose (A) and
tighten by hand.
5. Push the sleeve (J) of the snap coupling (G) downwards and fit
the coupling to the union (K).
To ensure that the handspray (C) is correctly seated when inserted,
lug (L) and (M) on the outlet must engage in recess on the
handspray.
Open cold and hot water supply and check connections for
leakage!
Operation
1. Lever, see Fig. [4].
Slide lever to right = open (water flow)
Slide lever to left = closed
Slide lever towards front = cold water
Slide lever towards back = hot water
2. Handspray, see Fig. [5].
Slide lever to right (faucet open). The water will always emerge first
from the aerator.
Diverter button:
Turning off the faucet automatically diverts the water flow from
handspray to aerator.
Flow rate limiter
This faucet is fitted out with a flow rate limiter, permitting an
infinitely individual variable reduction of the flow rate. The highest
possible flow rate is set by the plant before despatch.
The use of flow rate limiters in combination with hydraulic
instantaneous water heaters is not recommended.
To activate see “Replacing the cartridge” point 1 to 4,
Figs. [6] and [7].
Maintenance
Inspect and clean all parts, replace as necessary and grease with
special grease.
Shut off cold and hot water supply!

1. Lever out plug (N).
2. Loosen set screw (O) using a 3mm allen wrench.
3. Pull off lever (P).
4. Unscrew cap (R).
5. Turn out screwing (S) with wrench 32mm.
6. Change the complete cartridge (T).
Assemble in reverse order.
Observe the correct installation position!
Make sure that the cartridge seals engage in the grooves and the
locating pins at the base of the cartridge slot into the apertures on
the housing.
