If need be you can use a pair of needle nose pliers or similar tool to grip the white cylinder pro-
truding from the base of the RO Membrane to gain the leverage needed to push the membrane
entirely into its proper position.
4.0 Inserting the R.O. Membrane
The R.O. Membrane is shipped sealed for
freshness. Remove the R.O. Membrane
from its sealed plastic bag and insert the
membrane firmly into the R.O. Housing
(see Fig 4). It can only go in one way, the
end with the two small o-rings is to be
inserted first.
Please Note: It is extremely important
the two small black “O” rings on the tip
of the membrane seal tightly into place
inside the membrane housing. Please
make sure to insert the membrane as
firmly as possible into the membrane
housing.
When you are certain the Reverse Osmosis
Membrane is firmly in place screw the R.O. Mem-
brane housing cap back into its place (Fig 4) and
then tighten with reasonable force using the
small canister wrench from the Large Parts Bag.
4.1 Inserting the pre-filter elbow adaptors
Using two of the elbow adaptors from the Small
Parts Bag, screw one of them into the “INLET”
(left) side of the three pre-filters (Fig. 5) and the
other into the “OUTLET” (right) side of the three
pre-filters (Fig 5).
S
Please note: Apply 4-7 wraps of Teflon
tape, found in the Large Parts Bag, on each of
the elbow adaptors
throughout this installation
to prevent any possible leaks.
5.0 Preparing the Feed Water to your system
Found under your sink are the water supply shut off valves to your hot and cold water lines. You will
need to SHUT OFF the cold water valve. Run the hot water for 30 seconds and then feel which line un-
der your sink is warm. SHUT OFF the opposite water line – since that will be the cold water line. After
this valve is off, turn on your sink’s cold water tap to make sure there is NO cold water flowing from
your kitchen sink faucet. If you shut the valve off correctly, there should be no cold water flowing.
