ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Attachment to Floor - Mounting hardware is not included (supplied by others).
CAUTION: CHECK FOR ADEQUATE FLOOR STRENGTH.
Concrete:
Secure the floor flange (stainless steel or galvanized steel) using four (4) expansion anchors or equal type anchors.
NOTE: If a concrete base is required ensure raised area is no more than 2" from standing level.
Metal:
Secure floor flange using four (4) ½"-13 UNC machine bolts and nuts for thick metal surface (drill and tap thick metal surface),
or four (4) ½"-13 bolts and nuts for thin metal surface. Bolts should be long enough to allow at least a ½" bolt clearance for nut
attachment.
Wood:
Secure floor flange using four (4) ½" x 3" lag screws.
NOTES:
a. See Figure 2 Installation Layout on page 3 for reference.
b. The use of a pipe wrench and appropriate pipe sealant are required for proper attachment of each component, unless otherwise noted.
c. If shower unit has a fountain section, complete Steps 1-3 (below) prior to mounting the floor flange to the floor.
d. If an obstruction exists which may prevent assembly of the overhead shower section to the upper stanchion, complete Steps 1-8 (below)
prior to mounting the floor flange to the floor.
e. Floor flange should be positioned with the waste connection facing away from standing area of user.
f.
When floor flange is secure, check flange to ensure correct installation and no movement of the flange is present.
1. Once placement and installation of the floor flange is complete, assemble the 1¼" tee (A) to the floor flange. Waste connection should be
properly located to rear or desired side away from standing area of user.
2. Assemble the lower stanchion (16" to 22") to the tee (A) fitting.
3. If a fountain section is present, thread fountain section tee (B) onto lower stanchion. Align fountain section into the preferred direction the
shower will be facing.
4. If a fountain section is not present, thread coupling (C) (with plugged adapter [D]) directly to the lower stanchion. NOTE: The plugged adapter
½"
will have a
square plug--do not remove plug.
5. Do one of the following according to the type of upper stanchion (one piece or three piece). One Piece: Assemble upper stanchion (57
to the plugged adapter (D). Three Piece: First, assemble the bottom half of upper stanchion to the plugged adapter (D). Then, assemble the
coupling (I) to the bottom half (28
6. Assemble the overhead assembly 1¼" tee (E) to the upper stanchion.
7. Align the overhead shower assembly with the fountain section (if one is present), or position to the preferred direction.
8. Attach shower head to the overhead shower elbow (F), taking care not to cross thread. Hand tightened until snug.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten. Pipe sealant or tape is not required or recommended
9. Remove cotter pin and washer from the pull rod and insert tip through the hole at the end of the shower actuator arm (G). Tip of pull rod
should be on the actuator arm side closest to the overhead piping. Re-attach washer and cotter pin to secure pull rod.
10. If a fountain section is present, attach push plate and locknut to ball valve. Thread eye/facewash head assembly onto nipple in bowl. Hand
tightened until snug. Once snug, rotate back until eyewash heads are aligned with push plate (when in off position).
CAUTION: Do not over tighten. Pipe sealant or tape is not required or recommended
11. Connect water supply piping to shower unit at the desired water inlet location (upper tee [E] fitting or mid-point plugged adapter [D]). If upper
water inlet connection is desired, remove the 1¼" plug from upper tee (E) fitting and insert plug into the mid-point water inlet plugged adapter
(D).
12. If you have ordered an accessory with your shower, such as a drench hose assembly, freeze or scald protection valve, follow the installation
steps below applicable to the appropriate component. For reference, see Figure 2 on page 3.
NOTES: (1) The piping system should be well-flushed before installation of the freeze or scald protection valves, as particles in the water
may obstruct and prevent complete closing of the valves.
(2) After protection valves are in place, ensure arrows are pointing downward.
(3) Pipe wrench and appropriate pipe sealant are required for proper attachment of each component.
a) Drench Hose
1. Remove and discard the ½" square plug from the tee plugged fitting (H) at fountain section.
2. Attach threaded end of drench hose assembly to the tee plugged fitting (H).
3. Attach drench hose hanger to upper vertical stanchion using U-bolts and bracket provided.
b) Freeze Protection
1. Remove and discard the ½" square plug from the tee plugged fitting (H) at fountain section.
Valve and/or Scald
2. Attach threaded end of freeze or scald protection valve assembly to the tee plugged fitting (H) until secure.
Protection Valve
3. If both valves require installation, an accessory tee assembly is provided for complete installation. Remove
and discard the ½" square plug from the tee plugged fitting (H) at fountain section and replace with accessory
tee assembly (threaded end onto the tee plugged fitting [H]). Thread until secure while ensuring accessory tee
is positioned horizontally. Attach protection valves at the preferred open ports of the accessory tee. Thread
until secure.
c) Drench Hose and
1. Remove and discard the ½" square plug from the tee plugged fitting (H) at fountain section and replace with
Protection Valve(s):
accessory tee assembly provided (threaded end onto the tee plugged fitting [H]). Thread until secure while
ensuring accessory tee is positioned horizontally.
2. Attach assemblies at the preferred open ports of the accessory tee. Thread until secure.
3. If both protection valve and drench hose assemblies require installation, remove and discard the ½" square
plug from the tee plugged fitting (H) at fountain section. Thread the ½" nipple, then the ½" cross fitting (parts
included) onto the tee plugged fitting (H). Attach assemblies at the preferred open ports of the cross fitting.
Thread until secure. NOTE: If the assemblies are purchased separately, a ½" cross fitting (P/N 00001704,
sold separately) is needed to complete the installation.
13. Test unit for leaks and for proper water flow pattern by activating valves simultaneously using pull rod and push plate(s).
