FAUCET INSTALLATION

INSTALL THE FAUCET
Be sure there is room underneath and above
the sink to make the needed connections. Before
starting, make sure there is sufficient room for the
faucet base and unit. Select one of the following
places to install the faucet:
A. In an existing sink spray attachment or soap
dispenser hole.
B. In a hole to be drilled in the sink top.
C. In a hole to be drilled in the countertop, next
to the sink.
NOTES:
• Be sure the faucet base will fit flat against the
surface at the selected location so the bottom
gasket between the base and surface area
will seal.

of the faucet in case you need to remove it.
