Installation and Service Instructions
Installation
Caution: Be sure to turn off hot and cold water supplies before
installing or servicing faucet.
Step 1 If installing model with hose and spray, install hose
guide into hole in sink (normally the far right hole on four hole sink). From underneath sink place washer then nut over hose guide and secure to sink. Insert hose through hose guide and up through middle hole from le in sink. 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. From above sink attach hose securely to nipple on base of faucet.
Step 2 Align faucet to sink by matching underside arrow
and word “FRONT” on base plate (KN-33) with front of sink. Without straightening copper supplies insert through center hole of sink and anchor bar/spacer/nut assemblies through holes in sink. Secure faucet to sink by tightening nuts from underside. (If sink surface is uneven use putty or sealant to make proper seal under base.)
Step 3 Carefully straighten copper supplies to avoid kinking
tubing. Connect hot supply to le tube and cold supply to right tube using appropriate connectors.
Step 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 position, 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. If equipped with a hose and spray, direct spray head into sink and activate spray. Shut o faucet and replace aerator. Check for leaks.
Step 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.
Step 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 or KN-3BRB), li limit stop ring 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.
Cartridge Replacement (KN-4)
Step 1 Remove plug button (KN-157), loosen set screw (L-22)
and remove handle (KN-3RB or KN-3BRB).
Step 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 (KN-1). Continue turning counter clockwise so that cap/ring assembly is removed from the body (KN-11).
Step 3 Remove cartridge and three ring seal (KN-4).
Step 4 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 adapter plate during assembly.
Step 5 Reassemble faucet in reverse fashion. Thread cap onto
body firmly by hand. Do not use a wrench which may damage the finish. Tighten compression ring (KN-2) finger tight using the wrench (LN-34) then 1/4 to 1/2 turn further. Set hot water limit stop in accordance with installation step 6 above.
Diverter replacement (KN-169)
1. Follow cartridge replacement steps 1 through 5 above.
2. Remove retaining ring (K-44) with 3/8” hex key wrench.
3. Remove diverter (K-43) and o-ring (K-46).
4. Grease diverter o-ring and install into body.
5. Press diverter into o-ring and body.
6. Replace retaining ring.
