Install The Whirlpool Trim Kit; Test Run The Whirlpool - Kohler System II K-712-H Installation Manual

7. Install the Whirlpool Trim Kit

- Install the whirlpool trim kit according to the instructions packed with the trim kit. Pay particular attention to the
jet installation steps below they are very important and are included here to help you obtain smooth, trouble free
jet operation.
NOTE: The jet O ring must be correctly positioned, must be lubricated, and must be in good condition to permit
easy rotation and proper operation of the jet.
- Install the O ring onto the first shoulder of the jet. Lubricate the O ring with silicone lubricant to prevent noisy
operation of the jet.
- Carefully insert the jet into the housing, and lightly push and rotate the jet until it snaps into position. Do not
force the jet.
NOTE: When installed correctly, the jet should turn smoothly both clockwise and counterclockwise.

8. Test Run the Whirlpool

- Check all electrical connections, and make sure the electrical power to the whirlpool is turned on.
- Make sure all union connections to the pump are securely hand tightened.
- Verify that the pump banding straps have been cut, and that the pump base is resting directly on the subfloor.
- Fill the whirlpool to a level at least 2" (5cm) above the top of the highest jet.
- Operate the whirlpool for 5 minutes, and check all whirlpool piping connections for leaks.
- For additional information on whirlpool operation, see Confirm Proper Operation on Page 9.
