INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Determine what type of installation will be utilized.
a. standard installation with plasterguard/mounting bracket.
b. thin wall installation with mounting bracket.
c. valve only installation with plasterguard (service stops
or check stops are recommended).
2. Install hot to the left inlet and cold to the right inlet (see H and C
marks on valve body).
3. Thread sealant, or solder flux must be used sparingly. After
installation, flush pipes thoroughly (remove internal parts if
necessary), to eliminate debris that may become lodged on the
working parts of the valve.
4. Shower only applications require the bottom outlet to be plugged,
tub only applications require the top outlet to be plugged. A tub
diverter is required for tub/shower combinations.
5. Apply foam pointer gasket to wall flange. Mount wall flange to the
valve body with the vandal proof wall flange screws provided.
6. We recommend to seal the flange to the wall with silicone to
prevent water from penetrating the wall.
7. Check high temperature limit stop (see instructions, page 2).
8. Attach the knob to the valve stem using the vandal proof pointer
screw and washer. Turn knob clockwise to "OFF" on the dial
plate.
