5.
The valve should be attached firmly between 85mm and 95mm below the finished
surface to allow the cover plate to fit neatly, using the two fixing holes on the
valve. Position the valve centrally between the feed pipes and mark the screw positions,
drill and plug the wall.
NOTE: Make sure the mixer valve is kept in a clean place to prevent rubbish etc, getting into
the openings while fitting the pipework. Tiling behind the trim plate must leave
sufficient access to the valve for servicing later.
6.
Position the mixer valve onto the hot and cold water feed pipes and tighten the
compression nuts (See Fig 7). Hold the mixer valve in place and secure to the wall with
screws. Make sure the mixer valve hot feed is connected to the inlet marked hot and the
cold inlet market cold. The valve will not work correctly if connected the wrong way.
7.
Screw the two chrome cover sleeves onto both the control shafts (See Fig 8).
8.
Pipes must be fitted from the ¾ BSP female outlets of the mixer valve to the location
at which you wish to position the wall outlet, overhead arm or other fittings. These
pipes must end in ½ female connection so the wall outlet and overhead arm can be
fitted. If fitting as a 2 way valve, the unused outlet must be blanked off using the ¾ BSP
blank plug supplied.
9.
Once the mixer valve and wall outlet are fitted, prior to fitting the trim plate ensure all
connections are watertight. This can be done by reconnecting the water supplies and
check all connections. To do this you must fit the diverter handle in the correct position
so that ‘off’ is at the bottom. After pressuring the system and checking no leaks are
present turn the handle to all other positions, checking each time that there is no leak.
Return the handle to its original position and remove.
10.
The trim plate is fitted by pushing it onto the mixer valve until flush with the tiles
(See Fig 9).
NOTE: Before assembling the valve controls identify all the parts and check that both
the red markings on the control shaft of the thermostatic control are inline.
11.
Fit the on/off control knob onto the diverter (the top shaft with the ‘off’ at the bottom),
push fully onto the shaft. Hold firmly in position and tighten the grub screw with allen
key supplied (See Fig 10a/b).
