Before continuing, determine the type of water supply connection you have from the chart 
below and use the appropriate assembly parts required to properly reconnect the water supply. 
DO NOT use plumber's putty to seal these fittings.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE 
CONE WASHER WITH 
PLASTIC SUPPLY LINE.

These parts must be used as 
illustrated to insure water-tight 
connection. Use of existing 
coupling nut may result in 
water leakage. Water supply 
tube or pipe must extend at 
least 1/2" inside threaded 
shank of valve (does not 
apply to flanged tubing).

Use existing 
coupling nut 
and washer.

Use existing spiral cone 
washer. Fluidmaster 
cone washer may not 
seal completely on 
spiral type supply line.

Captive cone washers 
already included. No 
additional washers needed.

CAUTION: Overtightening of 
LOCK NUT or COUPLING NUT 
could result in breakage and 
potential flooding.

1.     Make sure that the bolt cover area on the toilet is clean and 

dry (see figure). Use a dry piece of cloth or soap and water
if needed.

2.     Take plastic bolt cover and peel the brown protective film off 

on both ends. The adhesive part is now visible and ready to

 be placed on the toilet (see figure).

3.     Gently place the bolt cover on the toilet area (see picture) and if
        everything is aligned, push bolt cover firmly so it remains in place.

4.     If not aligned, you can still take it off and put it back so it is aligned.
5.     Repeat Step 3 for second bolt cover which is to be placed on opposite side of the toilet.
6.     After 24 hours, the bolt cover adhesive has completely set off and if needed, you can remove/replace 
        as needed. The dual lock technology is now in place.

 

c.  Smooth off the bead of sealant around base. Remove excess sealant.
