Fitting of tap
Select the spot for the tap to be fitted on the sink and, using the black plastic stiffener as a guide, mark
the spot to be drilled with a pencil. Before drilling it is very important to make sure that the area
underneath this spot is accessible and flat for the nut, stiffener and spring washer to seat on, and that
you can get access to tighten the nut and make the tube connection.
Drill a pilot hole with a 1/8” drill bit then follow through with a ½” bit. (Never attempt to drill a vitreous
china sink, locate the tap in the worktop instead.) If you are drilling a porcelain enamelled sink place a
piece of tape over the spot to be drilled to prevent chipping.
In most installations the faucet will be assembled using the larger lower body as in picture below, in
which case discard the small lower body. If you are not using the large lower body (this will be in
circumstances where the corner of the sink is too small for it or it is being installed in an extra thick
worktop where you need the extra length of the stud) then assemble using the small lower body and
discard the large one. In either case ensure the ‘O’ is in place.
Insert tap through hole in sink or work top and then place the black plastic stiffener and spring washer
on the threaded tail, screw nut on and tighten using a 7/16” adjustable wrench until it is tight and tap
does not rotate.
Finally connect tubing with a 3/8” pushfit fitting on the tail of the tap.
