Your new faucet is designed for years of trouble-free performance.
Keep it looking new by cleaning it periodically with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive
cleaners, steel wool and harsh chemicals as these will scratch, dull, and/or
damage the finish and void the warranty.

ASSEMBLY
REQUIRED TOOLS
Adjustable wrench
Allen key - supplied (to remove cartridge if needed)
Plumber's putty - optional
Pipe tape
Flat screwdrivers
SAFETY TIPS
If you use soldering for the installation of the faucet, the seats, cartridges and
washers will have to be removed before using flame. Damage caused by
improper soldering will void the warranty.
Protect your eyes with safety glasses when cutting or soldering water supply
lines.
IMPORTANT POINTS
Prior to beginning installation, turn off the cold and hot water lines and open the
hot and cold knobs on the old faucet to release pressure.
When installing your new faucet, turn the connector nuts finger-tight, then use
one wrench to anchor the fitting and a second wrench to tighten the nut.
Connections that are too tight will reduce the integrity of the system and
potentially cause product failure which could lead to water damage.
Wrap all threaded connections with pipe tape available at your local hardware or
plumbing supply store. Always wrap in a clockwise direction.
Not all necessary supplies to install your faucet are included, however, they are
available wherever plumbing supplies are sold.
Prior to installing the faucet please FLUSH THE HOT AND COLD WATER
SUPPLY LINES that are or will be connected to the new faucet to remove scale,
solder or their impurities which could damage the faucet and potentially void the
warranty.
INSTALLATION
Installation must be done by a qualified licensed plumber.
Prior to installation please read the instructions thoroughly, confirm that all parts
are included and visually inspect the unit for any defects.
If you have any questions please contact the Vigo Technical Support
Department before proceeding with installation.
