You can determine which tools and materials are necessary by reading the complete installation instructions and examining the job you have to do.
TOOLS AND MATERIALS
! Observe all local plumbing and building codes. ! Carefully inspect the new toilet for damage. ! If the existing toilet does not have a supply shut-off valve below the tank, you
will install one before installing the new toilet.
! Rough-in information is included with your toilet. The rough-in information shown
will be helpful in placing the toilet, water supply piping, shut-off valves and drain in their proper positions.
CAUTION: Your new toilet is finished to an attractive high gloss. It may also be heavy and difficult to lift. To protect the finish and avoid possible damage before and after installation, please handle your toilet with care. Place the toilet on a thick bed of newspapers when working on it before installation.

and shut-off valve. (Refer to the rough-in drawing).
