Installation Consideration

For best results, this unit should be installed by a licensed, professional plumber.

Rough-in 10303181 must be installed, and the wall finished, prior to installation of this trim kit.

For the trim to fit properly, the outside surface of the finished wall must fall between the “minimum”
and “maximum” lines on the factory installed plaster shields on the rough-in. If the rough-in is too
far inside the wall, install extension kit 96259000 before attempting to install the handle trim.

No drain is included with this trim kit. Please consult the sink manufacturer regarding a suitable
drain for the specific sink used.

Installation

Remove the inserts from the plaster shields.

Trim the plaster shields to 1/16” from the finished
wall.

Seal the wall around the plaster shields with
waterproof sealant.

Lever handle model (39148XX1) only: Use a
17 mm deep socket wrench to remove the cartridges
from the rough-in. Install the new ¼ turn ceramic
cartridges included with the trim kit. The new hot
cartridge is marked with notches on the wrench flats.

All models: Remove the plug from the spout port.

Install the handle slip coupling. Use a ruler to measure
a point on the coupling 3/8” from the surface of the
finished wall. Mark the coupling at that point. Cut
the coupling. Insert the extension spindle.
