Drill hole and Connect 3/8" Black Tube from Faucet to the Drain Saddle
IMPORTANT:
The black 3/8" drain tube must be as SHORT and STRAIGHT as possible to the drain
saddle, making a downward slope from faucet to drain saddle to allow for proper
drainage. This is a gravity fed line and if there is any bend or dip in the tube, the rinse
water will not flow into the drain properly. Water may back up and come out the air
gap hole in the back of the faucet.
Step 16
With the drain saddle secured onto the drain pipe, using a 1/4"
drill bit installed in your electric drill, insert the drill bit through the
opening in the drain saddle and drill through the drain pipe.
Caution: It is very important to keep the drill centered to prevent
damage of the drain saddle while drilling.
Measure the 3/8" black tube from faucet to the drain saddle on the
Step 17
drain pipe and make a straight cut to the correct length.
Step 18
Slip black tube through black compression nut. Insert black tube
into the opening in the drain saddle and hand tighten the black nut,
and add 1/4 turn with a wrench.
Green Tube Connection
Step 19
Locate green tube from the RO Module. Remove a brass nut, plastic
sleeve and brass insert from the parts bag. To assemble, place the
brass nut on the green tube first, then the sleeve (small tapered end
of sleeve must point to the end of tube) and then push the brass
insert all the way into the end of the tube. (See Picture)
Insert the green tube into the ¼" opening on the adapt-a-valve until
Step 20
it stops. Slide the brass nut and sleeve down and thread onto the
male pipe threads. Use a ½" wrench to securely tighten the nut.
Reverse Osmosis Module Mounting
Step 21
Determine best location for the RO module to be mounted to allow
for future system maintenance. The parts bag has 2 self tapping
screws. Using an electric drill with a Phillips bit, screw them into
the cabinet wall 6" apart and 16" from the bottom of the cabinet.
Note:
Do not cut any RO system tubes at this time
