PRECAUTIONS BEFORE

INSTALLATION

Please note, two people are needed
during installation to place the toilet.

NOTE: The toilet ange is referred to
as the drain socket ange, and the oor
ange is referred to as the closet ange
for the purposes of this manual.

Before installing this product, note the
required and recommended water

supply line pressure is between 20
and 80 psi.

Before installing your new toilet, the
rough-in distance needs to be checked.
The distance between the oor drain
and the water supply valve also needs
to be checked. Please reference the
“Recommended Measurements”
section and the measurements for the
model you have purchased.

Oil, lm, dust and other particles may
come in contact with the product during
transportation and shelf life.

ANY and ALL residue must be removed
from the closet ange.

The old closet ange bolts may need to be
replaced.

Cleaning products prevent bacteria
from growing on the surface of this
product. While the cleaning products are
antibacterial, it cannot be ensured that
all bacteria are destroyed.

INSTALLATION

POSITIONING OF THE DRAIN SOCKET FLANGE

1. Remove the old toilet
and the old wax ring
with the putty knife.

2. Clean the closet ange
thoroughly so there is
no leftover residue.

3. Dry t the drain socket
ange (using the existing
bolts in the closet
ange) and position it so
it is straight.

NOTE: Do not install

the new wax
ring in this step.

4. Mark the position of the
pilot holes for the drain
socket mounting screws
at the rear of the drain
socket ange. (You will
mark 4 holes in total.)

(See Illustration A)

5. Remove the drain
socket ange and drill
the 4 pilot holes. Insert
the anchors into the
pilot holes.

NOTE: The existing

closet ange
may be used in
this new toilet
installation,
or you may
purchase and
install a new
closet ange.

6. Fit the drain socket over
the closet ange, using
the existing bolts, or
you may purchase new
bolts.

NOTE: The center of

the drain socket
ange must be
aligned with the
center of the
closet ange.
(Clogging may
occur if the
drain socket
is attached off
center.)

7. Secure the drain socket
with the washers and
mounting screws.

8. Dry t the toilet.

9. Use tape to mark the
edge of the toilet skirt
directly below the
mounting holes on each
side of the toilet (these
marks will be used to
measure the placement
of the L-mount
brackets).

10. Also mark the center
edge of the front of
the skirt with tape (this
mark will be used for
placement of the toilet
later in the installation).

11. Remove the toilet.

previous section. Mark for placement of the L-mount brackets.

2. Dry t the L-mount brackets and mark the pilot hole for each L-mount bracket.

3. Drill the 2 pilot holes and insert the L-mount bracket anchors into the pilot holes.

toilet seat into the mounting hole on
the toilet bowl.

screw for the toilet seat into the
mounting hole on the side of the toilet
seat.

2. Open the hinge caps if applicable.

3. Drop the bolt through the open hinge
and bolt hole.
