INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: EURO Models 1770, 1771, 1775 & 1776
CAUTION - READ BEFORE INSTALLATION
Tapmaster Incorporated will not be held liable for damage to property or persons resulting from improper installation of this product
any part of the installation process, please contact us for assistance or consult a professional tradesperson before installation.
• Water lines must be flushed prior to installation
• Do not install if control tubes are damaged in any way
• Control tubes are pressurized after installation. Do not
expose tubing to excessive heat, unsealed chemicals, or
physical damage
This illustration shows a typical installation for the Euro Model 1770 series
Tapmaster. The valve blocks are connected in-line on the hot and cold water
supplies with 3/8" compression fittings. The Euro foot activator is mounted on
the cabinet toe kick with the control tubing routed from the foot activator
through the cabinet base to the hot and cold water supplies to make the con-
nections to the valve blocks.
Models 1771 and 1776 come with one valve block and are generally used on
tepid or single line water supplies. Models 1770 and 1775 come with two
valve blocks for standard hot and cold water lines. Installations will vary
according to the design of the cabinet, type of faucet and plumbing hardware.
In some cases, it may be simpler to connect the valve blocks at a mid-point
along the 3/8" supply tubing. In this case it will be necessary to obtain a 3/8"
x 3/8" compression connector
the inlet fitting into the water lines. Other plumbing arrangements may be
encountered where larger than 3/8" O.D. tube sizes are used. In these
situations reducing adapters
to install the Tapmaster.
Although Tapmaster will work with any faucet, faucets that have handles which give a reference
for flow and temperature are recommended. The Euro foot activator will fit cabinets with toe kicks
ranging in height from 3" (75mm) to 6" (150mm) and it is recommended to be vertically aligned
with the center of the faucet. The plastic probe part of the foot activator is cut to length to keep
the bottom of the probe approximately 1/2" to 1" above the floor.
OPERATION
Models 1770 and 1771 feature momentary operation only,
while Models 1775 and 1776 incorporate a lock on feature in
addition to momentary operation.
momentary mode
To operate the Tapmaster Euro in
the faucet open at the flow and temperature desired, push
the Euro probe foot activator in any direction for momentary
water flow, release to turn off.
continuous mode
For , push the Euro probe foot activator
sideways to 45 degrees in either direction to lock on; push
activator back to vertical rest position to turn off. The locking
feature allows the operator to manually use the faucet for
such things as filling the sink, etc. It is not recommended for
repeated on/off operation. This feature has been
intentionally designed to require a deliberate thoughtful
motion on the part of the operator to prevent locking inad-
vertently.
Tapmaster does not alter the appearance of the faucet,
removable decal
therefore a is provided which may be
located on any hard smooth surface near the faucet to alert
people to its method of operation.
CAUTION: it is possible for pets or small children to inadvert-
ently lock on the Tapmaster—simply leave the faucet closed. Never leave the drain stopper in the
closed position in any sink.
