9. Flush your system prior to installing the shower
head. Place handle on valve stem and turn handle to
full mix position. Turn ON water supplies, check for
leaks and let lines
fl
ush for one minute without moving
faucet handle. Divert water to shower head and
fl
ush
for 30 seconds. This will remove any debris from lines
which can damage internal parts of the faucet and
create leaks. After
fl
ushing, shut OFF water at faucet.
Remove handle and attach escutcheon. Attach shower
head.
CAUTION:
Connection of deck-mount spouts to in-
wall valves is not recommended. Neither is the use of
hand showers connected to bath spouts in a bath/shower
push button diverter combination.

onto the body. Hand tighten securely.

10. IMPORTANT: The Rotational Limit Stop is used to
limit the amount of hot water available such that, if set
properly, the user will not be scalded if the handle ac-
cidentally is rotated all the way to “hot” when a person
is showering or
fi
lling a tub. The
fi
rst position allows the
LEAST amount of hot water to mix with the cold water
in the system. In the
fi
rst position the water will be the
coldest possible when the handle is turned all the way to
hot. As you move the Rotational Limit Stop counterclock-
wise, you progressively add more and more hot water
in the mix. The last position to the left will result in the
greatest amount of hot water to the mix, and the great-
est risk of scald injury if someone accidentally turns the
valve handle all the way to the hot side while showering
or
fi
lling a tub.

WARNING: In some instances, setting the Rotational
Limit Stop in the hottest position (full counterclock-
wise) could result in scald injury. It is necessary to
adjust the Rotational Limit Stop so that the water
coming out of the valve will not scald the user when
the handle of the valve is rotated to the hot side.
Adjust rotational limit stop. After water has run a suf
fi
cient
length of time so that cold water is as cold as it will get,
and hot water is as hot as it will get, place handle back
on stem and rotate handle counter clockwise to the hot-
test position. Place a thermometer in a plastic tumbler,
and hold the tumbler in the water stream. Record the
temperature reading and note or mark the position of
the Rotational Limit Stop on the mating part. If the water
temperature is above 120°F the Rotational Limit Stop
must be rotated clockwise to reduce the temperature
(See illustration).
Remove the Rotational Limit Stop and replace it one tooth
counter clockwise for every 6° F (approximate) reduction
in temperature that must be made. If water temperature
is below 90° F, rotate the stop counter-clockwise. Repeat
as necessary. Make sure cold water
fl
ows from the valve
fi
rst and does not exceed 120°F at the hottest
fl
ow. A
guide to setting the approximate outlet temperature is
included. This is only a guide and any setting must be
veri
fi
ed by using the above procedure.
