PLUMBER'S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. PLEASE
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION.
Rough in:
It is possible to fix the toilet into a 10" (255mm) to 12" (305mm) rough in
positions by rotating the offset adaptor.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use a wax ring with a reducing horn on this toilet as it reduces the
flushing efficiency as shown in Fig.1.
Working Water Pressure:
USA & Canada: Recommended working water pressure 20-80psi
(140-550Kpa).
Flushing Operation:
Push down the side lever handle for a full flush (1.28 gpf/4.8 lpf) and pull
up for a reduced flush (0.8 gpf/3 lpf).
Installation Procedure:
1. It is important for the installation of Somerton Smart 2 PC washdown
bowl that the closet flange be accurately set out from the finished wall
as detailed in Fig.2.
2. Position wax ring and offset adaptor onto closet bolts as detailed in
Fig. 3 and 4, ensuring that the offset adaptor is positioned for a10"
(255mm) to 12" (305mm) rough in as shown in Fig.7.
3. Place a fixing bracket (#687088) onto each closet bolt and hand
tighten the nuts and washers onto the closet bolts as detailed in
Fig 4. Apply an additional turn by wrench for final installation.
4. Ensure that the area around the closet bowl is clean and free from
building materials.
5. Accurately align the closet bowl over the offset adaptor and lower
into position.
6. Insert the plastic and brass bushings into the bowl fixing holes as shown
in Fig.5. Secure the bushings through the holes in fixing brackets with SS
screws as shown in Fig. 6. Spacing between the outside of the Somerton
bowl and the fixing bracket can vary. To ensure the best possible installation
2 lengths of SS screws have been supplied. If when fastening there is no
resistance, (meaning that the screw has not sufficiently fastened into
the fixing bracket), substitute the longer 55mm (2-3/16") screws. Do not
start with the longer hardware as you do not want the screws to insert past
the fixing bracket into the offset adaptor, as this can affect your seal. Cover
the holes with caps.
7. It is recommended that a bead of silicone caulking is applied fully around
base of the closet bowl, leaving 1-2" at the rear.
8. Remove any excess silicone caulking.
