INSTALL TILE (IF APPLICABLE)
Verify that there will be a 1" (2.5cm) to 1-1/2" (3.8cm)
distance from the top of the sleeve to the top of the tile.
If not, do not install tile due to improper valve installation.
If proper clearance exists, install tile up to plaster guards
on valves and spout supply tube.
NOTE: The final stem heights for both K-300 and K-301
valves are 1-13/16" (4.6cm) minimum to 2-5/16" (5.9cm)
maximum from the top of the valve to the top of the tile.
REMOVE PIPE PLUG
Make sure the valves are closed (cold = fully
counterclockwise; hot = fully clockwise).
Turn off the main water supply.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Lines may be
pressurized. Do not lean over pipe plug when
turning or removing the plug.
Wrap a towel around the pipe plug to prevent water spray.
Water may purge from the supply tube when you remove
the plug.
Carefully remove the pipe plug.
INSTALL SPOUT
Remove the plaster guard from the spout supply tube.
Cut off the spout supply tube 1-1/4" (3.2cm) above the rim,
finish deck, or tile.
Be sure all burrs are removed from the supply tube to
prevent damage to the O-ring seal on the sleeve.
