The average estimated time for installing this lavatory faucet is 60 minutes (40 minutes for products without pop-up drain installation). This estimated time only involves this product and does not include the removal of old faucet. This estimated time will vary depending on many variables such as the install application, the skill level of the installer, the type of plumbing (iron pipe, copper, flexible, PEX), the type of tools used, etc.
Read all the instructions completely before proceeding. Pfister recommends calling a professional if you are uncertain about installing this product! This product should be installed in accordance with all local and state plumbing and building codes.
Locate water supply inlets and shut off the water supply valves. These are usually found under the sink or near the water meter. If you are replacing an existing faucet, remove the faucet from the sink and clean the sink surface thoroughly.
Your installation may require new supply lines and/or shut-off valves or other additional tools.
Following manufacturer's recommendations on use, apply plumber's putty into putty groove in bottom plate (4A). Insert faucet Shanks (4B) through the end holes of the sink.
Align Faucet (5A) to sink surface. From underneath sink, secure faucet using Wingnuts (5B). Hand tighten.
Connect water Supply Lines (6A) to Faucet Inlets (6B). Hot water supply lines go into left inlet. Cold water supply lines go into right inlet. (Supply lines are not included.)
Please follow manufacturer's instructions when installing supply lines.
Insert Lift Rod (7A) into hole at the back of Spout (7B). Gently, slide Lift Rod (7A) down the Hole in Spout Hub (7B). For products without a Pop-Up Drain Body, insert Button (7C) into Hole (7B) at back of the Spout.
Install and adjust Pop-Up (8A) using separate instructions supplied with the Pop-Up assembly.
Turn on water supply inlet valves and check for leaks.
After installation is complete, remove Aerator Housing (10A). Turn Valves (10B) on and allow both hot and cold water to run for at least one minute each. While water is running, check for leaks. To clean the aerator, disassemble Aerator Housing (10A) by separating the Aerator Shell (10C), Basket (10D) and Washer (10E). Once parts have been cleaned, reassemble by reversing steps.
Turn off water before proceeding! Remove Button (11D). With Valves in "Closed" position, unscrew Fastener (11A) and remove Handle Hub (11B) from Valve Stem (11C).
How to disassemble your valve to check or replace the cartridge or valve seats:
Shut off water supply. Remove handle (refer to step 11). Loosen the retainer nut (12A) by turning it counter-clockwise and lift out the cartridge assembly (12B). Inspect the rubber valve seat in the faucet body. Remove all debris. Re-insert the cartridge into the faucet body. Make sure the wings (12C) on the two sides of the cartridge bonnet fit well into the slots (12D) on the faucet body. Tightly screw the retainer nut (12A) by turning it clockwise. Reinstall the handle.
