Installation and Service Instructions

Installation

Caution: Be sure to turn off hot and cold water supplies before installing or servicing faucet.

1. Loosely install the anchor bar (KN-23), spacer (KN-26) and

nut (L-36) on the mounting bolts and place gasket on base of faucet. Push faucet supplies and anchor bolt/spacer/nut assemblies with gasket through holes in sink. Secure faucet to sink by tightening nuts from underside. (If sink or counter surface is uneven, use putty or sealant to make proper seal under base.)

2. Connect hot supply to le tube and cold supply to right tube using appropriate connectors.

3. Pop-up drain installation: a) Remove pop-up plug, tail piece and ange from the drain

body. Make sure that locknut is threaded all the way down onto the body with at friction washer in middle

and beveled washer on top. b) Apply plumbers putty or sealant to bottom of ange. c) Install drain body through drain opening in lavatory

and screw ange onto the drain body making sure that

the threads are completely engaged for proper sealing

and strength of the connection. Apply joint compound

to all threaded parts to insure proper seal. Apply putty or

teon tape to tail piece before attaching to drain body. d) Tighten locknut to compress the beveled ange evenly

across the bottom of the drain opening taking care not to

over tighten the locknut, causing damage to the lavatory. e) Remove one of two ball washers from inside the

threaded cavity. Insert pop-up plug and pivot rod into

body. Add one ball washer (the second ball washer

should remain inside the body) to the outside of the ball.

Tighten the retaining nut until the ball is seated on the

internal and external ball washers. Note: e pop-up plug can be installed either in the remov-

able or non-removable position, depending on the location

of the hole located in the guide at the bottom of the plug. f) Slide the pivot rod through one side of the spring clip,

then the appropriate adjustment hole and then other

side of the spring clip. g) Insert li rod through faucet housing and the top of the

li strap and secure it in place by tightening the screw. Note: To ensure proper operation of li rod and pop-

up, some adjustment of the linkage may be required.

ere are two possible adjustment points: 1) li strap to

li rod and 2) li strap to pivot rod.

4. It is very important to thoroughly ush the supply lines to prevent foreign matter, i.e. copper chips, sand, stones, etc. from damaging the sealing surfaces of cartridge.

Remove aerator and turn valve handle on to full cold posi-

tion, open cold supply. Without closing, turn handle to full hot and open hot supply. Let water run in hot only and cold only positions long enough to ush supply lines thoroughly. Shut o faucet and replace aerator. Check for leaks.

5. e handle limit stop can be set to limit handle turn to the hot position. e limit mechanism is factory set to allow full handle travel. To adjust the limit stop, turn handle to the full hot position and li handle to open faucet approximately half way to obtain a smooth ow for correct initial temperature measurement.

6. If when faucet is on and in full hot position and water is too hot, remove plug button (KN-157), loosen set screw (L-

22) and remove handle (KN-3RB, KN-3BRB or LN-135). Li limit stop ring (KN-4L) using a small at head screw driver and rotate counter clockwise to lower temperature. If water is not hot enough, rotate clockwise (See Figure 1 on reverse side). Aer correct temperature is achieved, reattach handle, reversing procedure above.

Replacing cartridge (KN-4)

1. Remove plug button (KN-157), loosen set screw (L-22) and remove handle (KN-3RB, KN-3BRB or LN-135).

2. Engage tabs in cartridge wrench (LN-34) with slots in compression ring (KN-2) and use screwdriver in wrench holes or pliers on wrench and turn counter clockwise until compression ring engages with cap (LN-8). Continue turning counter clockwise so that cap/ring assembly is removed from the body (LN-371). Remove cartridge and three ring seal (KN-4).

3. Install new cartridge while taking care to maintain position of the three ring seal at the base of the cartridge. Match posts in base of cartridge with alignment holes in valve body during assembly.

4. Reassemble faucet in reverse fashion. read cap onto body rmly by hand. Do not use a wrench which may damage the nish. Tighten compression ring (KN-2) nger tight using the wrench (LN-34) then 1/4 to 1/2 turn further.

5. Set hot water limit stop in accordance with installation step 5 above.
