3. Install the Riser Tubes - Freestanding
Thread the riser tubes down into the riser support until the riser
tubes almost bottom out. Do not completely tighten the riser
tubes into the riser support.
NOTE:
The distance from the surface of the finished floor to the top
of the installed coupling assemblies must be approximately 24-7/16
″
(62.1 cm).
Thread a coupling assembly onto each water supply connection,
then tighten with a wrench.
Install the plastic pipe plugs (provided) into each coupling
assembly.
Turn on the main water supply.
Check for leaks. Adjust as needed.
Turn off the main water supply.
Remove and discard the plastic pipe plugs.
Thread the riser tubes out of the riser support, then thread the
riser tubes up onto the coupling assemblies until hand-tight.
Slide an escutcheon with gasket (supplied in the bath filler
hardware pack) over each riser tube and against the surface of the
finished floor. The setscrew holes on each escutcheon should face
toward the bath.
Secure each escutcheon in place with a small setscrew.
