Installation

1. For typical installation of the wall hung back outlet fixture, a

4-bolt Carrier/Support system, (not supplied with this unit)
must be used for attaching the water closet to the carrier/
support system and waste drain. Refer to the Installation
Instructions that were supplied with the Closet Carrier/
Support System for installation of the unit.

2. If you are installing the toilet on an existing support system,

make sure the system is in compliance with local code
requirements and the support system is weight rated for
the application requirements.

3. Mounting studs should extend 2-1/8” (54mm) beyond the

finished wall. The waste horn should extend 5/16” (8mm)
beyond the finished wall.

4. Place back up nuts supplied with the carrier/support on

mounting stud #1, #3 and #4.

No back-up nut is used on

mounting stud #2!

Adjust the two lower back-up nuts so

the front face of the nuts are 1/16” away from the finished
wall. Using a level, adjust the back-up nut on mounting
stud #1 to a vertical plane with mounting stud #3. Place
back-up washer on the three installed back-up nuts.

Note: If wall is irregular, the three back-up nuts and
washers must be positioned to allow a minimum of 1/16”
gap between the fixture and the wall.

Note:

The back-up nuts, also referred to as the bearing

nuts, must be set to take the full loading from the fixture
while allowing a 1/6” clearance between the fixture
and the finished wall. Follow the carrier manufacturer’s
recommendation settings for the outlet connection. When
setting fixture onto the carrier, it is not recommended to
use a wax ring, felt or neoprene are recommended. When
setting the fixture to the carrier, the waste gasket must
be compressed sufficiently to assure a positive gas and
watertight seal.

6. Using two people, install the bowl onto the fixture mounting

studs. Place the fiber washer supplied with the carrier/
support on mounting studs #1, #3 and #4.

(Do not place

a fiber washer or cap nut on mounting stud #2 at this
time.)

Place the cap nut supplied with the carrier/support

on mounting studs #1, #3 and #4. While holding the bowl
level and using an adjustable wrench, tighten the three cap
nuts until they are snug.

CAUTION: PRODUCT IS FRAGILE

Do not over tighten nuts more than a snug fit.

7. Install the fiber washer and cap nut onto the mounting stud

#2, hand tighten until the nut and washer are touching
the china. Hand snug firmly the cap nut against the china,
this is all that is necessary for mounting the cap nut and
washer to stud #2. Caulk sealant into the gap between the
toilet and the finished wall.

Note: If you wrench tighten the cap nut on mounting stud
#2 you will break the china since there is no back nut on
this stud.

8. With the tapered side of the large rubber gasket facing

away from the tank, slip the rubber gasket over the thread
of the flush valve on the bottom of the tank. Connect the
flexible water supply tube (Not Included) onto the fill valve
of the tank. Set the tank onto the bowl, with the tapered
side of the large rubber gasket towards the bowl. While
lowering the tank onto the bowl, route the flexible supply
tube through the opening provided.

9. Fit the tapered side of the large rubber gasket into the

inlet opening of the bowl. Place the small rubber gaskets
onto the tank mounting bolts that were supplied with your
tank. Place the metal washer and nut onto the bottom of
the tank bolts and tighten the nuts until the tank is snug
against the sanitary tank bar on the bowl.Connect the
supply line from the tank to the shutoff valve and tighten
all coupling nuts securely. Turn on water supply and allow
the tank to fill. Check for leaks and tighten fittings as
necessary.
