IMPORTANT: Water supply on the wall is required at 3-3/4" or 9" from centerline of the toilet (see rough-in). First suggested position is
hidden behind the toilet. The geometry of the toilet gives space for this installation. The second suggested position is next to the toilet.
Between these two positions, the space for the supply between wall and toilet is limited to 3-1/4". In this case, check your supply and
hose dimensions.

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.
