1) Mount valve assembly
Mounting plates Ensure plates
are seated against front of valve assembly. (Using mounting plates is optional when wall thickness is greater than 3/4 inch.)

Valve assembly installation
Install through cutout holes in wall with both mounting plates ush against surface when secured with attached piping.
2) Install piping and fittings
Shower head (T on diverter)
Pipe from primary outlet port on diverter marked T to shower head mounting arm location.
Hand shower connection elbow
Pipe from secondary outlet port on diverter marked S to hand shower connection elbow location.
Hot & Cold Supply (H & C)
Pipe hot water supply to valve input marked H and cold water supply to valve input marked C.
3) Remove protective shields.
Diverter Remove tube seated
over end of diverter spindle.
Valve Remove shield snap tted
over the end of valve spindle.
Service stops Remove two red
end-caps covering service stops.
4) Adjust valve spindle cap nut
■ Turn hot & cold supplies on. Valve will not operate unless
both hot and cold water supply pressure are turned on.
■ Tighten packing nut for positive frictional resistance as handle is rotated from shuto position across adjustment range. Reference gure 3 below.
5) Flush system, check for
leaks
■ Turn valve to the warm position and run for a few minutes.
■ If system is dirty, remove valve spindle in valve to ensure proper ushing. See service instructions.
Note: Do not install positive
shut-o devices on valve outlet or devices that do not allow the valve to ow at least 1 GPM at 50 psi inlet pressure.
■ Check for leaks around valve assembly and all pipe ttings.
6) Set limit stop screw
e limit stop screw limits valve handle from being turned to maximum position resulting in excessive hot water discharge temperatures.
■ Place handle on control spindle and open valve to maximum desired temperature.
■ Turn limit stop screw clockwise until it seats. Reference gure 3.
Warning: Failure to
adjust the limit stop screw properly may
result in serious scalding.

Trouble Shooting Chart
Problem Cause Solution
Valve will not pass water
Valve leaks when shut o.
Temperature control handle is turned from cold to hot (or hot back to cold) and volume from spout or head is not constant.
Valve delivers sucient quan­tity of cold, but little hot, or the reverse.
Temperature varies without moving handle.
Valve delivery temperature reduces gradually during use; handle must be turned to hotter positions to maintain constant temperature.
Valve delivers hot water when initially opened. Water turns colder as handle is rotated in a counter-clockwise direction toward the hot position.
Both hot and cold water supply are not turned on.
Hot and cold washers are worn or foreign matter (dirt, chips) is lodged between washers and seat surfaces.
Pressure balancing piston housed in spindle assembly is restricted from free movement by foreign matter.
Turn on both supplies. Valve will not operate unless both hot and cold water pressure is on.
1) Replace washers using control spindle washer repair kit, p/n TA-9.
2) Replace hot & cold seats using hot/cold seat repair kit, p/n TA-4.
1) Open valve half way, remove handle and tap spindle with plastic hammer.
2) Check water pressure balancing piston in control spindle assembly. See service instructions.
3) Replace control spindle, p/n TA-10
Same as above Same as above
Same as above Same as above
Overdraw on hot water sup­ply (i.e. running out of hot water)
Reduce maximum ow by using volume control adjustment on valve or shower head. is will allow longer period of use before overdrawing hot water supply.
Valve is piped incorrectly (i.e. the hot supply s piped to the valve’s cold inlet and the cold supply is piped to the hot inlet.)
If piping is accessible, correct connections to the valve. If piping is not accessible, order a reverse seat and tool kit, p/n T-108. Older installations may also require replacing the hot seat, hot/cold seat repair kit, p/n TA-4
Service Instructions
Removing control spindle assembly
(Ref. Parts Assembly figure)
■ Shut o water supply to valve and remove control valve handle and dome cover.
■ Remove escutcheon plate by rst removing escutcheon screws.
■ Turn valve’s control spindle to half way position between minimum and maximum rotation.
Important: Failure to
do this can damage control spindle assembly.
■ Unscrew both spindle cap and
control spindle assembly.
Hot/Cold Seat Repair Kit
Order p/n TA-4, T-35A and T-35B.
Installation requires both hot & cold removal tools, p/n T-35A & T-35B.
■ Remove control spindle assembly.
■ Remove both seats with removal tools.
■ Replace both seats even if only one appears worn.
■ Install and tighten both seats to 15 foot pounds of torque.
Control Spindle Washer Repair Kit
Order p/n TA-9.
■ Remove control spindle assembly.
■ Remove cold washer by holding spindle using valve handle and unscrew cold washer retainer using channel lock pliers.
■ Remove hot washer by removing hot washer screw.
Checking Water Pressure Balancing Piston
e perforated end of the control spindle assembly houses the water
pressure balancing piston which is the heart of the valve.
■ Remove control spindle assembly.
■ Shake spindle assembly and listen for clicking noise. Piston should be free to slide back and forth the full length of its travel.
■ If piston appears restricted then do the following:
(1) Tap the handle or stem end of the spindle against a solid object to free the piston.
(2) Try soaking in household vinegar and repeat step (1).
■ If unable to free piston, replace
control spindle assembly, p/n TA-10.
Important:
Do not
attempt removal of the piston.
Valve re-assembly
Reassemble by reversing above procedures.
Aer the control spindle assembly (TA-10) is threaded back into the spindle cap assembly (TA-12A) ensure control spindle is rotated 1/2 half turn clockwise from its maximum counter clockwise rotational position. Failure to do this will damage assembly.
