Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

specifications and with state and local plumbing codes.
Protect faucet and water lines leading to faucet against
freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■ Faucet requires a 1³⁄₈" (3.5 cm) diameter opening in sink or
countertop. If hole is not available for mounting it is
recommended that a qualified installer be contacted to drill the
hole for your installation in a sink deck or countertop.
Thickness of sink or countertop hole must not exceed 1³⁄₄"
(4.4 cm).
■ Hot and cold water supply lines must be available and if they
are not it is recommended that a qualified plumber install the
necessary piping.
■ Faucet hoses are equipped with compression type seals and
do not require sealing compounds to prevent leaking.
■ As with all metal objects, follow proper handling techniques.
■ It is recommended that a qualified plumber/installer install the
faucet. The faucet installation must comply with national and
local plumbing codes and ordinances.
■ The faucet should be examined for damage prior to
installation. Do not install a damaged faucet. Instead, return
the faucet to the dealer from whom you purchased it. Failure
to do so will void the warranty.

Troubleshooting guide
PROBLEM CHECK THE FOLLOWING
Slow or No water flow.
■ Assure that water supply valves are fully open.
■ Assure braided faucet hoses are not twisted and are free from kinks.
■ Assure household main water supply is not shut off.
■ Assure faucet aerator is free of debris that could cause a plugged condition.
See “Cleaning” section.
Faucet leaks at spout.
Faucet lever loose.
Pullout spray head does
not pull out to a
satisfactory distance.
■ Check that faucet lever is in the off position.
■ Faucet may drip for up to a minute after shutting off. This is the natural construction of the faucet.
■ Check that lock nut under faucet lever is tight.
To check this:
- Remove faucet lever, lever base assembly and cap to expose lock nut. Tighten lock nut. If
leak persists, the cartridge under the lock nut should be replaced.
■ Tighten set screw in lever with supplied Allen wrench.
■ Check that area under sink cabinet is free from any articles that may impede the travel of the hose.
■ Check the position of the weight(s) on the hose that will allow desired travel. Move weight(s)
position to allow more travel when spray head is pulled out.
