S-244 Series

INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE
INSTRUCTIONS

Faucet meets ANSI A112.18.1M Flow rate: 2.2 gpm (8.3 L/min)

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

INSTALLATION:

1. Push valve bodies through holes in sink from underneath. Make
sure flange nuts and mounting washers are on underside of sink.
Valve marked Hot is on the left and Cold is on the right. Put
gasket (LN-129) over valve body. Thread escutcheon (LN-128)
onto valve bodies. The top of the valve spindle should measure
1-7/8” from mounting surface (See rough in drawing).

2. Thread collar (LN-112 or LN-160) on to valve body until it
reaches the escutcheon (LN-128). Tighten flange nuts from
underneath sink. Secure with mounting screws if necessary.

3. LCT or LWG handle installation: Place bushing (LN-115 or
LN-154) on valve spindle. Turn valves to o position (LCT
style: turn clockwise, LWG, LCF, LPO and LAM style: turn hot
clockwise, turn cold counterclockwise). Place handle (LN-131 or
LN-151) on bushing. Thread screw (LN-146 or LN-121) into valve
and push plug button (T-33R and T-33B) into top of handle.

LCF, LPO and LAM handle installation: Place lever part of handle

on valve spindle and thread screw (LN-134) into valve.

4. Install spout (LN-124) and centerbody (LN-141) through center
in sink hole from above sink. Secure spout to sink with washer
(LN-138) and nut (SPF-26). Washer (LN-138) flat should face back
of the sink. Thread tee (LN-141) to bottom of centerbody (LN-141).

5. Thread flex hose adapters into tee (LN-141) using pipe dope or
teflon tape on the adapter threads. Attach flex hoses to flex
hose adapters.

6. Connect hot supply to left tube and cold supply to right tube
using appropriate connectors.

7. Pop-up drain installation:
a) Remove pop-up plug, tail piece and flange from the drain

body. Make sure that locknut is threaded all the way down
onto the body with flat friction washer in middle and beveled

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

screw flange 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 teflon

tape to tail piece before attaching to drain body.
d) Tighten locknut to compress the beveled flange 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: The pop-up plug can be installed in the removable 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 lift rod through faucet housing and the top of the lift

strap and secure it in place by tightening the screw. Note: To

insure proper operation of lift rod and pop-up, some adjust-

ment of the linkage may be required. There are two possible

adjustment points: 1) lift strap to lift rod and 2) lift strap to

pivot rod.

8. It is very important to thoroughly flush the supply lines to
prevent foreign matter, i.e. copper chips, sand, stones, etc. from
damaging the sealing surfaces of cartridge. Remove aerator
and open hot and cold to full open then open both supplies.
Let water run through hot and cold long enough to flush supply
lines thoroughly. Shut o faucet and replace aerator. Check for
leaks.

To replace cartridge (KN-113 or KN-114):

1. Remove plug button (T-33, T-33R or T-33B), loosen Philip
head screw (LN-121) and remove handle, LN-131, LN-151 or
LN 152.

2. Remove collars LN-160 or LN-112 by turning counter clock­wise, do not use wrench as this may damage the surface
finish.

3. Place wrench on cartridge hex nut (KN-113, KN-114). Turn
wrench counter clockwise until cartridge is removed.

4. Install new cartridge. Turn cartridge with wrench until car­tridge does not turn easily then turn 1/4 to 1/2 turn further.
