C.  Drain Clamp Installation

 

  Choose the drain outlet location per Sec. III, C.5, 

page 8. 

  The following are instructions for discharging into 

the sink drain pipe. (Refer to Fig. 1, page 5.) 
1.  Position the Drain Clamp on the sink drain 

pipe above the drain trap. Allow room for 

drilling. Tighten securely. 

2.  Use a battery powered or properly grounded 

drill. Using the Clamp port as a drill guide,  

drill a

" Black Drain Tubing connected 

to the Dispensing Faucet. Route to the tubing 

to the Drain Clamp and trim to length. 

 

NOTE:

 When cutting the polytubing make  

clean, square cuts, failing to do so could 

result in poor connections and possible leaks. 

 

CAUTION:

 The lowest point of the line 

should be the point of connection to the Drain 

Clamp. There should be no sag in the line as 

this may cause excessive noise as the reject 

water is flowing to drain.
•Refer to Fig. 4, page 12. Insert the tubing 

into the Drain Clamp. Make sure the 

tubing is pressed all the way in to create a 

pressure tight connection.

NOTE: If you want to pull the tubing out for 

some reason, push the ring around the 

tubing in and pull the tubing out.

D.  R.O. Manifold Assembly Installation 

  Locate the site per Sec. III, C.3,  page 7. Various 

installation sites will require different types 

of mounting fasteners; be sure the fastener 

selected will provide a firm, solid mounting. 

A support panel may be necessary on thin 

cabinet walls or to span between wall studs on 

particleboard or drywall. 

  Do not drill through exterior cabinet walls or 

leave sharp wood screw points exposed in 

readily accessible cabinet interiors.
