USING THE TILING SHROUD

The tiling shroud will need a section removed
(fig.25) in order to accommodate the mounting
bracket.

Replace the tiling shroud over the mixer valve.

Plaster or tile up to the edge of the shroud. Note
that if the tiles are accurately cut to match the
profile of the shroud, then the face plate will seal
around the hole in the tiles, and the valve unit will
be able to be removed from the mounting bracket
without the need to break any tiles.

Ensure the grout lines are flush with the tiles in
order to provide a smooth sealing surface for the
face plate.

FITTING THE FACE PLATE AND KNOBS

Unscrew the face plate retaining rings from the
valve unit (if fitted).

See fig.26 for the assembly of parts.

Position the

face plate over the valve unit and place the trim
rings onto the face plate ensuring the indicator
notch is in the 12 ‘o’ clock position. It must be in
this position regardless in which orientation the
unit is mounted.

Secure by screwing on the two brass face plate
retaining rings.

Gently tighten the rings by hand until the face
plate clamps gently against the wall. Do not over-
tighten or the face plate may distort. The face
plate incorporates a silicon sponge seal which will
satisfactorily seal against a smooth wall.

Temperature control knob assembly

Place the temperature knob temporarily onto the
splined adaptor, and rotate fully anti-clockwise.
Remove the knob and reposition onto the splined
adaptor again, but this time ensuring the ceramic
tap handles are in a 2 o’clock and 10 o’clock
position (fig.27).

Screw the locknut down against the knob and
tighten using the key supplied. Do not fit the
finishing cap just yet as when the commissioning
is carried out, the maximum temperature
adjusting screw may have to be altered.
