Installation Instructions for Spout
1. Complete ROUGH-IN instructions PRIOR to installing finished trim.
For reference, see M & I included in Roman Tub rough-in.
2. Carefully unscrew white plastic test cap from the spout shank
and discard.
3. To prevent damage to the spout shank O-Ring, unscrew the set screw
enough to clear the spout shank.
If your model does not have a spout base go to Step 4.
If your model has a spout base: Unthread upper body shank and
remove flat washer. Place step washer into hole in the spout base.
Insert upper body shank into step washer/spout base assembly.
Rethread upper body shank. (See Illustration A).
4. Place spout assembly onto the spout shank. (See Illustration B). Make
sure spout assembly rests on finished surface and secure
spout assembly by tightening set screw using 1/8" allen wrench
(not supplied). Insert plug button (if supplied) in set screw access hole
of spout assembly.
Installation Instructions for Flange and Flange Base
Flange Base Installation
For Series 68 & 330 with Flange Bases and Porcelain Flanges
Remove top hex nuts and washers. Apply silicone sealant to bottom of
flange base. Slide on flange bases. Replace washers & hex nuts. Adjust
the top hex nut on the end valves until 2 or 3 threads are visible above
the hex nut. Tighten bottom nut (if necessary). Wipe off excess sealant
with soft cloth. Temporarily thread on flange. This should allow the flange
to seat properly on the finished surface.
For Series 66 with Flange Bases and Porcelain Flanges
Remove top hex nuts and washers. Apply silicone sealant to bottom
of flange base. Slide on flange bases. Replace hex nut only. Adjust
the top hex nut on the end valves until 2 or 3 threads are visible above
the hex nut. Tighten bottom nut (if necessary). Wipe off excess sealant
with soft cloth. Temporarily thread on flange. This should allow the flange
to seat properly on the finished surface.
Flange Installation
For Series 30, 32, 34, 47, 63 & 64.
Adjust the top hex nut on the end valves until 2 or 3 threads are visible
above the hex nut. Tighten bottom nut (if necessary). Thread on flange.
This should allow the flange to seat properly on the finished surface.
For Series 27 & 29.
Remove top hex nut. Mark a line on the hex nut and rethread on end
valves threads 2 full revolutions only. Tighten bottom nut (if necessary).
Thread on flange. This should allow the flange to seat properly on the
finished surface.

Cutting End Valve Stems
1. Temporarily place handle with shank onto valve stem.
2. Determine the amount of valve stem that will need to be cut off to
allow the ridge on the handle shank to slightly clear the flange. (See
Illustration C. on page 2). Measure the distance, "X", between this point
on the handle shank and the top of the flange and subtract 1/16" to
determine the amount of valve stem that will be cut off.
3. Remove handle and flange. (If flange has already been permanently
installed, protect flange with cloth). Cut off valve stem as shown in
Illustration C. on page 2. Remove burrs from the cut valve stem.
4. If you removed the flange, apply non-abrasive sealant to underside
of flange. Note: Sealant under flange is not necessary if you have
a model with a flange base. Thread flange onto the valve body so
that flange fits tightly against deck or flange base. Wipe off excess
sealant with soft cloth.
Cutting Diverter Valve Stems and "All-thread"
1. Series 66, 68 & 330 only: Remove the top hex nut & washer. Slide
base onto "All-thread". Replace washer & hex nut.
2. Thread on flange until it bottoms out. Measure and write down the
distance between the bottom of the flange and the top of the flange
base. (See Illustration D. on page 2). Add 1/16" from this distance. This
will be referred to as "X".
3. All other Series: Thread on flange until it bottoms out. Measure and
write down the distance between the bottom of the flange and the
finished surface. (See Illustration D. on page 2). Add 1/16" from
this distance. This will be referred to as "X".
4. Remove flange. Measure down from the top of the All-thread the "X"
distance and mark a line on the "All-thread" at this point.
5. Cut the "All-thread" on the line that you marked, being careful not to
damage the threads.
6. You are now ready to cut the diverter valve stem to the same height as
the end valve stems. (Refer to "Cutting End Valve Stems" instructions).
After cutting diverter valve stems, apply silicone sealant to underside of
flange. Note: Sealant under flange is not necessary if you have a
model with a flange base. Thread flange onto "All-thread" until it seals
against the base.
7. Make connections for water supply lines according to Illustration on
page 2.
8. NOTE: If your model has a stream straightener remove it now. After
connections have been made, turn handles to full on position. Turn on
water supplies, check for leaks and let lines flush for one minute without
moving faucet handles. This will remove debris from lines which can
damage internal parts of faucet and create leaks. Replace stream
straightener (if applicable).
There are many different handle design configurations.
Please locate your handle design below.
NOTE: DO NOT permanently install flanges prior to cutting the end valve stems.
