Service – Adjust Gap
If the toilet does not activate, the gap between the actuator and the plunger arm may
need to be reset.
Reset
Make sure the trip lever handle is installed, and the nut on the trip lever is tight.
This is a left-hand thread; turn counterclockwise to tighten.
Make sure the water supply is on and the supply line water has stopped flowing
into the toilet.
Loosen the setscrew, then turn the actuator until there is a 1/16
″
(2 mm) - 1/8
″
(3
mm) gap between the actuator and the plunger arm. Turn the actuator clockwise
to increase the gap.
Retighten the setscrew after the gap is properly adjusted.
NOTICE:
If the plunger is not sealing properly, loss of gap clearance adjustment
could cause leakage into the toilet bowl. This condition could cause a continual flow
of water. If the problem is not corrected after adjustment, refer to the
