LONG REACH  AIR GAP FAUCET 

WITH 3/8" CONNECTOR

Figure 2

3. Assemble and attach the Faucet (Refer to 

Fig. 2 above.) 

•Assemble the Body and Spout by removing

the plastic shipping plug from the Body and
then firmly pressing in the Spout. 

•In the following order, place the Face Plate

(Escutcheon) on the 7/16" stud. 

•From the top of the counter place the stud

through the mounting hole.

•From the bottom of the counter top, in the fol-

lowing order, assemble the steel Slotted
Washer, the Plastic Spacer (with open end
upwards), the 7/16" Washer and the 

7/16" Hex Nut. 

•To the end of the 7/16" stud screw on the 3/8"

Polytube Quick Connect Fitting. Once snug by
hand take a pair of pliers and tighten the fitting
an additional half turn. Don’t over tighten.

•Rotate the Spout and Body into position. Align

the Split Washer and the Spacer to allow
access to the Hose Barbs, and tighten the
Hex Nut while holding the faucet in alignment
with a padded Crescent wrench. Do not over

tighten.

B. Feed Water Saddle Valve Installation 

Decide on location. Do NOT connect to a hot
water feed line. If you are not sure of the supply,
run the hot water and feel the supply piping. Water
over 100˚F may cause permanent damage to the
R.O. Membrane. (Refer to Fig. 3 below.)

FEED WATER SADDLE VALVE

Figure 3

1. Shut off the water supply and drain the line.

2a. To install on (soft) Copper Tubing supply line:

• Turn the Handle of the Feed Water Saddle

Valve counter clockwise (outward) until the
lance does not protrude from the gasket. It
may have to be pushed in. 

• Assemble the Feed Water Saddle Valve on

the tubing.

– for 3/8" OD tubing use the back plate side with

the small groove to prevent distortion of the
tubing. 

– for larger tubing (up to 5/8" OD) use the large

groove of the back plate. 

• Assemble and tighten the brass screw.
