2. Selecting the Faucet Location
NOTE: The drinking water faucet should be positioned with function,
convenience, and appearance in mind. An adequate flat area is
required to allow faucet base to rest securely. The faucet fits through
a 3/4-inch hole. Most sinks have pre-drilled 1
diameter holes that may be used for faucet installation. If these pre-
drilled holes cannot be used or are in an inconvenient location, it will
be necessary to drill a 3/4-inch hole in the sink to accommodate
the faucet.
This procedure may generate dust which can cause severe
irritation if inhaled or come in contact with the eyes. The use of safety
glasses and respirator for this procedure is recommended.
Do not attempt to drill through an all-porcelain sink. If you
have an all-porcelain sink, mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer hole
or drill through countertop next to sink.
When drilling through a countertop, make sure the area
below the drilled area is free of wiring and piping. Make certain that
you have ample room to make the proper connections to the bottom
of the faucet.
Do not drill through a countertop that is more than
one inch thick.
Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble, granite or
similar countertop. Consult a plumber or the countertop manufacturer
for advice or assistance.
A)
Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal shavings,
parts, or tools from falling down drain.
b) Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to prevent scratches
if drill bit slips.
C) Mark hole with center punch. Use a 1/4-inch drill bit for a pilot
hole.
d)
Using a 3/4-inch drill bit, drill a hole completely through the sink.
Smooth the rough edges with a file.

the wing nut. Tighten the wing nut by hand until tight. It may
be necessary to have a second person hold the faucet while
tightening the wing nut.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the wing nut. Hand-tighten only. Do not
use pliers or wrench to tighten.
