3. You may now turn the water supply to your home ON. Check for leaks around the saddle.
Tighten, reseat or reinstall if necessary.
Step 4. Install the Sink Faucet
Tools required for this step: An electric drill, a 5/8” carbide bit, a small adjustable wrench, a center
punch, a pencil, a rat-tail file.
Your dealer will be able to supply a variety of designer faucets and finishes to suit your
particular installation, if you wish. Included in your system is a premier quality chrome
faucet that is compatible to most kitchen installations.
1. Examine the sink. If it has an existing hole for mounting a faucet, skip to Step 4. (6).
2. Locate and mark the spot you wish to install the faucet. Make sure it does not interfere
with operation of the main faucet and that there is clearance for plumbing and mounting
hardware directly below it under the sink or countertop. If you have a stainless sink, go to
Step 4. (5)
3. If you have a concrete sink with a thickness of less than 1”, the faucet can be mounted
directly to sink. If the thickness exceeds 1”, the faucet must be mounted directly on the
countertop or a faucet with an extended shank must be used.
Tool substitution: Use a 5/8”
masonry bit to drill the concrete sink.
4. If you have a granite or marble countertop, a porcelain enamel or ceramic sink, it is
strongly
recommended that a kitchen or plumbing professional install the faucet to avoid
chipping and damaging the sink or countertop finish.
5. Mark the spot chosen for the faucet hole with the pencil. Use the center punch to slightly
indent the spot (the center punch is unnecessary for concrete sinks). Use the 5/8” bit and
drill the hole. Use the rat-tail file
to smooth any burrs or rough
edges on the hole.
6. The sink faucet may now be
assembled to the sink or
countertop using the assembly
procedure shown in Figure 3. If
your faucet had the feed tube
factory-attached do not connect it
to the RO unit at this time.
7. For faucets that do not have the
feed tube factory-attached, thread
the faucet tube adapter on the
faucet shank until snug, but
DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Do not
attach the tube at this time.
