Measure the distance from the top of the valve stem to the

cm) use a brass spline adapter and screw. For a valve stem height
between 2-1/8" (5.4 cm) and 2-5/16" (5.9 cm) use a plastic spline
adapter.
If the brass spline adapter is required, attach using the screw
supplied. The plastic spline adapter slides on with no attachment.
Position the handle assemblies facing in opposite directions away
from the spout.
NOTE: The spline adapter allows fine adjustment of the handle
alignment. To adjust, remove the handle and reposition the spline
adapter.
Align the handle.
Reinstall the handle and check alignment.
