INSTALLATION
Push Handle Faucet
For easier installation, attach all tubing prior to mounting the faucet.
1. Insert polished faucet base (refer to figure H page 5) onto base of faucet.
2. Install the 1/4” yellow drain tubing onto the 1/4” barb fitting. This tube must be of sufficient
length to reach the yellow manifold drain connection.
3. Insert the white 3/8” tubing onto the larger 3/8”
barbed fitting, being sure you have enough tubing to
reach the drain saddle.
4. Slip the 1/4" and 3/8" tubing though opening in
polished faucet base (Item #1). Slide white plastic spacer
(Item #2) open-end-up onto the threaded faucet stem (Fig
6)
5. Thread the 3/8" washer (Item #3) and mounting lock
nut (Item #4) onto the threaded stem. (Fig 6)
6. Thread faucet quick-connect adapter (Item #5) on to
threads of faucet stem. NOTE: This connection should be
hand-tightened only. Push one end of 3/8" blue tubing
into 3/8" connection.
7. Insert tubing and faucet assembly down through the
sink hole.
8. Position the faucet to the desired handle orientation.
Slip the slotted washer between the white plastic spacer
and the sink. Securely hand tighten the mounting nut.
Hint: The airgap tubing connection is
located under the faucet handle. By
orienting the air-gap from the underside
of the sink, your faucet handle should be
correctly oriented.
9. Connect the white 3/8” tubing to the drain saddle assembly using the drain connector nut
supplied. This tubing should follow as direct a path as possible; long runs, looping or deep sags
will restrict normal brine flow to the drain. Save the unused portion of the tubing for the installa-
tion of the storage tank.
10. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the O-rings located at the base of the
spout. Firmly insert spout assembly into
the top hole of faucet body (approximately 1/4"). You
may swivel the faucet left or right.
