• Please read all instructions and precautions before installing and using your SY-1000S
under-sink water filter.
• Numbered diagrams correspond with numbered steps.
1. 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
7
/
-inch hole. Most sinks have pre-drilled 1 3/8-inch or 1
16
holes that may be used for faucet installation or spray hose. If these pre-drilled holes cannot be
used or are in an inconvenient location, it will be necessary to drill a 1/2-inch hole in the sink for
the faucet.
CAUTION:
This procedure may generate dusts 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.
CAUTION:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-PORCELAIN OR PORCELAIN-COATED
SINK. For applications on these types of sinks we recommend using the sprayer hole or
mounting the faucet through the countertop.
CAUTION:
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.
CAUTION:
Do not drill through a countertop that is more than 1-inch thick.
CAUTION:
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
drill bit, drill a hole completely through the sink. Smooth rough edges with a file.
2. Mounting the Faucet
(A) Slide small black rubber gasket OR
(B) gasket, aluminum escutcheon plate (remove protective plastic on aluminum escutcheon plate)
and large gasket onto threaded faucet stem. Lower faucet stem through hole in the sink.
NOTE: Black rubber gasket is designed for smaller holes in sink. Aluminum escutcheon plate with
gaskets is designed for larger, pre-drilled holes.
(C) Slide aluminum channel washer up faucet stem, followed by
(D) black plastic stem nut. Tighten nut with fingers.
NOTE: Do not use pliers to tighten stem-nut. Pliers may strip threads of faucet stem.
