10.) Following the system pressure test and prior to setting the bowl, knock out the
nipple test cap with a hammer. Make sure any sharp edges or burrs inside the
nipple resulting from the knockout are removed so the waterway is unobstructed.
11.) Remove the adhesive backing from both sides of the bowl gasket. Adhere the
gasket to the back of the bowl, centered around the bowl outlet. Install the bowl
onto the carrier, making sure the bowl gasket is properly seated against the
nipple.
12.) Install the four chrome cap nuts and plastic washers to secure the bowl.
Note: It is common industry practice for three cap nuts to be fully tightened,
and the fourth left hand tight. This reduces potential stress that can cause
the bowl to crack under heavy loading.
750 lb. & 1000 lb. Carrier Installation
Note: Follow the installation sequence for 500 lb. carriers, with the exceptions below.
Step 2.) For 750 lb. faceplates, attach each upright to a concrete floor with two 1/2"
anchor bolts per upright.
For 1000 lb. faceplates, attach each front upright to a concrete floor with
two 1/2" anchor bolts per upright. Attach each rear upright to a concrete
floor one 1/2" anchor bolt per upright.
Step 6.) Secure the rear anchor support rod through the boss on the back of the
carrier fitting with two hex nuts and washers (supplied) and adjust the
height. Attach the anchor bar to a concrete floor using two 1/2" dia. anchor
bolts (supplied by others).
Step 8.) Note: The nipple and rods for 750 lb. and 1000 lb. carriers cannot be extended beyond
the maximum dimension of the factory supplied assembly.
Carriers for Floor Mounted Back Outlet Bowls (suffix -BF)
Note: Carriers for floor mounted back outlet bowls are used to transition from the
bowl outlet to the sanitary piping system, and to form carrier batteries. Follow the
installation sequence for 500 lb. carriers, with the exceptions below.
Step 6.) Note: A rear anchor support is not required for -BF carriers.
Step 9.) Adjust the two bowl anchoring studs to extend approximately 2-1/4"(57)
beyond the finished wall. Adjust the back-up nuts flush with the finished
wall, with the back-up washers outside the wall. When properly positioned,
the back-up washers create a 1/16"(2) gap between the back of the bowl
and the face of the finished wall.
Step 12.) Install the two chrome acorn nuts and plastic washers to secure the bowl.
