INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS WIDESPREAD LAVATORY FAUCETS BEFORE YOU BEGIN NOTES Shut off the main water supply. Inspect the supply tubing for damage. Replace as necessary. Observe local plumbing codes. If possible, install this faucet before installing the lavatory. Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of faucets without notice, as specified in the Price Book.
PAGE 2
Thread a locknut all the way onto each end body so the flat surface of the locknut faces the top of the end body. Slide a fiber washer on each end body, and insert the end bodies into the side lavatory holes from the bottom of the lavatory. Make sure you install the end body marked with blue tape (cold) in the right-hand hole (as viewed from the front of the lavatory).
PAGE 3
DRAIN (OTHER FINISHES) Remove the flange from the body. Thread the nut completely onto the body. Apply a 1/2” diameter ring of plumbers putty or other sealant to the underside of the drain flange according to the putty manufacturer’s instructions. Insert the drain body up into the underside of the lavatory drain hole. Position the body so the seal hole is facing toward the back of the lavatory. Thread the flange onto the drain body from the topside of the lavatory.
PAGE 4
Lift Rod Slide the faucet lift rod through the hole in the spout and through the hole in the link. Tighten the thumb screw on the link so the lift rod knob is 1/2” above the lift rod hole. 1/2” IF THE LAVATORY IS NOT INSTALLED, INSTALL IT AT THIS TIME. BE SURE TO FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS PACKED WITH THE LAVATORY. SUPPLIES AND STOPS Connect the supply tubes to the faucet end bodies and supply stops. (Left is hot – right is cold.) Tighten all connections.
