a. Position toilet squarely to wall and, with a rocking motion, press bowl down fully on wax ring and flange. Alternately tighten nuts until toilet is firmly seated on floor.

CAUTION: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN NUTS OR BASE MAY BE DAMAGED!

b. Install bolt covers:

1. Make sure that the bolt cover area on the toilet is clean and dry (see figure). Use a dry piece of cloth or soap and water if needed.

2. Take plastic bolt cover and peel the brown protective film off on both ends. The adhesive part is now visible and ready to be placed on the toilet (see figure).

3. Gently place the bolt cover on the toilet area (see picture) and if everything is aligned, push bolt cover firmly so it remains in place.

4. If not aligned, you can still take it off and put it back so it is aligned.

5. Repeat Step 3 for second bolt cover which is to be placed on opposite side of the toilet.

6. After 24 hours, the bolt cover adhesive has completely set off and if needed, you can remove/replace as needed. The dual lock technology is now in place.

c. Smooth off the bead of sealant around base. Remove excess sealant.

Back Side
