Before You Begin

WARNING: Risk of product damage. Leave the cap on the
diverter until the spout from the bath faucet trim is ready to
be installed. The diverter is an O-ring sealing surface which
may be damaged when unprotected.
NOTE: This product is for finished deck-mount or finished
rim-mount installations only.
NOTE: Instructions are given for installations with 8" (20.3 cm)
centers. For wider installations, adjust all roughing-in dimensions
and copper tube lengths accordingly.
NOTE: The installation of water hammer arrestors are not required,
but are recommended. Installing water hammer arrestors may
reduce or eliminate the possibility of water hammer when the user
turns the handles to the ON or OFF position.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Shut off the water supply.
Protect the surface of the deck/rim during the installation.
