CAUTION: Risk of personal injury.
To eliminate the risk of
scalding, the water temperature should never be set above
120°F (49°C).
NOTE:
Do not remove the O-ring and collar at this time. Removing
the O-ring and collar will change the factory setting for the
maximum water temperature.
Turn the valve clockwise to the full open position and let the hot
water run for several minutes. Position a thermometer in the
water stream and check the temperature.
For
minor water temperature changes
, adjust the setscrew and
recheck the water temperature.

major water temperature changes
, remove the O-ring and
collar from the valve stem. Slowly rotate the valve stem until the
desired maximum water temperature is reached.
Reinstall the collar on the valve stem with the setscrew against
the side of the tab.
Reinstall the O-ring. Rotate the valve stem counterclockwise to
shut the water off.
