WARNING
DO NOT USE IN-TANK DROP-IN TOILET BOWL CLEANERS
CONTAINING BLEACH OR CHLORINE. Use of such products will:
MUST BE

(1) RESULT IN DAMAGE to tank components and MAY CAUSE
FLOODING and PROPERTY DAMAGE and (2) VOID
PIPE
FLUIDMASTER WARRANTY. DO NOT overtighten nuts or
tank/bowl may crack.
Fluidmaster Flush 'n' Sparkle™ Toilet Bowl Cleaning System is recommended for those
choosing to use in-tank bowl cleaners and WILL NOT VOID the FLUIDMASTER
WARRANTY because it will not damage tank components.
WATER
LEVEL
Because drop-in cleaners used in the tank can result in damaged tank
parts (see WARNING above), Fluidmaster recommends the use of
Flush 'n' Sparkle™ Toilet Bowl Cleaning System (Models 8100, 8200
or 8300). It cleans the bowl without harming tank parts by isolating
the cleaner from the tank water, releasing it only to the bowl where
it is needed. Cartridges supply more than 1,000 flushes and are
a snap to replace.
INSTALLATION WITH FLUIDMASTER
8100 BOWL CLEANING SYSTEM

Diagram 2
1. Shut off water supply to tank. Flush tank and sponge out remaining water.
Remove old fill valve assembly, tank ball, and wire guide unit (or flapper),
using pliers if necessary.
2. If you have a Fluidmaster bowl cleaning system, carefully disconnect
the tube from the fill valve. Do not disconnect the tube from the
dispenser (if you don't have a cleaning system, continue to Step 3).
3. Disassemble small parts – LOCK NUT, SHANK WASHER and ANGLE
ADAPTER for Valve installation (required); CONE WASHER and
COUPLING NUT for Water Supply Connection (optional–see Step 8).
4. Carefully remove CONE WASHER from center of SHANK WASHER. Place
SHANK WASHER on threaded shank of new VALVE. Place flat surface
against valve.
5. When installed, the critical level mark on the fill valve (identified by
a C.L. mark on the Fluidmaster Fill Valve) should be at least 1" above
the top of the overflow pipe. This is a plumbing code.
6. To adjust the height of the fill valve, twist the threaded shank in or out of
valve body. The height of the valve adjusts from 9 to 14 inches. On some
models, a clicking noise will be heard when adjusting the height. This
is normal.
7. Position valve inside tank. Push down on the valve shank (not the top)
while tightening lock nut. Hand tighten only. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN or
tank may crack. Make sure float cup does not touch toilet tank walls, trip
mechanism or flush valve.
8. Before continuing, determine the type of water supply connection you
have from the chart on the left and use the appropriate assembly parts
required to properly reconnect the water supply. DO NOT use plumber's
putty to seal these fittings.
9. With correct washers in place (see Step 8), tighten coupling nut. Hand
tighten only. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. CAUTION: DO NOT USE CONE
WASHER WITH PLASTIC SUPPLY LINE.
10. Clean drain with a soft cloth. Snap adapter ring away from flapper. Align
FLAPPER over mounting ears located on base of overflow pipe. Center
flapper over drain opening. Snap to mounting ears by pushing down on
the rigid frame near mounting ears. Flapper should open and close
without binding.
11. ADAPTER RING FOR 1" OVERFLOW PIPES WITHOUT MOUNTING EARS.
If there are no mounting ears on base of overflow pipe, install Adapter
Ring: 1) Position adapter over top of overflow pipe and press down until it
expands and slips over the outside of the overflow pipe. If the adapter will
not slide down overflow pipe, remove spring, slip adapter around the pipe
and replace spring; 2) Slide adapter down until it contacts base of overflow
pipe. Position spring clip opposite the drain seat. NOTE: If overflow pipe is
brass, use steel wool or wet/dry sandpaper to remove excess scale from
pipe prior to installation. If overflow pipe is larger than 1", Model 555C
can be used.
12. If you have a Fluidmaster bowl cleaning system, re-attach tube ("IN") to
fill valve nipple (see Diagram 2). Be sure toilet tank flushing components
move freely (if you don't have a cleaning system, continue to Step 13).
13. Remove and discard overflow pipe cap if present. Attach one end of black
refill tube to angle adapter and the other end to nipple located near top of
valve. Attach angle adapter to overflow pipe. Trim refill tube as necessary
to prevent kinking. NOTE: Flow from refill tube must be positioned just
above the overflow pipe. Do not insert refill tube down into overflow pipe
below water level. This will siphon water down the overflow pipe, which
causes the valve to turn on and off as it tries to keep the tank full. If the
angle adapter cannot be used, you may need the Model 599 Refill
Clamp (not included).
14. Connect flapper chain/linkage to hole in tank lever arm that provides the
best lift. Chain should have slight slack when flapper is in closed position.
Replace lid. Check lift action for proper flush.
15. IMPORTANT: Always clear sand and rust from system. Make sure
water supply is shut off. Remove valve TOP by lifting arm and rotating
top and arm 1/8 turn counterclockwise, pressing down slightly on cap.
16. While holding a container over the uncapped VALVE to prevent splashing,
turn water supply on and off a few times. Leave water supply off.
17. Replace TOP by engaging lugs and rotating 1/8 turn clockwise. MAKE
CERTAIN TOP IS TURNED TO THE LOCKED POSITION. VALVE may not turn
on if top is not fully to the locked position.
18. Turn on water supply. Adjust water to desired level by squeezing water level
adjustment clip and moving FLOAT CUP up or down along stainless steel
link. Check for leaks, then check for proper flush.
