TO INSTALL TOILET
Set the toilet upside down on some padding. Firmly
press the toilet gasket onto the toilet outlet.
NOTE: If you are using a toilet gasket with an integral
plastic sleeve, make sure the gasket is positioned with the
sleeve facing away from the toilet.
If desired, place a 1/4” thick bead of toilet setting
compound around the toilet base.
If you temporarily plugged the the closet flange with a
rag, remove the rag at this time.
Carefully align and lower the toilet over the closet flange
and T-bolts. Apply full body weight to the toilet rim to set
the seal.
CAUTION: Risk of external leakage. Do not lift or
rock the toilet after placement – a new toilet gasket
must be installed if you break the watertight seal.

T-Bolt
Assemble the bolt cap bases, washers, and nuts on the
exposed T-bolts. Hand tighten the nuts, then tighten
them an additional 1/2-turn.
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product
damage. Overtightening may cause breakage or
chipping of the vitreous china.
If the T-bolts extend more than 1/4” over the top of the
nuts, cut off the excess and file the end. Wipe away any
residue. Install the bolt caps.

TO INSTALL TANK
Make sure the three tank bolts extend completely
through the holes in the gasket. Set the tank onto the
bowl, using the tank bolts as a guide. Center the gasket
on the inlet of the bowl. Assemble the washers and
brass nuts onto the bolts.
Alternately tighten the three brass nuts so the top of the
tank and the top of the bowl are both level. Be sure the
brass nuts are tight enough to achieve a watertight
seal.
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product
damage. Overtightening may cause breakage or
chipping of the vitreous china.
