Adjusting the Rotational Limit Stop – Identify RSL type from
pages 5-6.
IMPORTANT:
The Rotational Limit Stop is used to limit the
amount of hot water available such that, if set
properly, the user will not be scalded if the
handle accidentally is rotated all the way to "hot"
when a person is showering or filling a tub. The
first position allows the LEAST amount of hot
water to mix with the cold water in the system.
In the first position the water will be the coldest
possible when the handle is turned all the way
to hot. As you move the Rotational Limit Stop
counterclockwise, you progressively add more
and more hot water in the mix. The last position
to the left will result in the greatest amount of
hot water to the mix, and the greatest risk of
scald injury if someone accidentally turns the
valve handle all the way to the hot side while
showering or filling a tub.
WARNING: In some instances, setting the
Rotational Limit Stop in the hottest position
(full counterclockwise) could result in
scald injury. It is necessary to adjust the
Rotational Limit Stop so that the water
coming out of the valve will not scald the
user when the handle of the valve is rotated
to the hot side.
• According to the majority of industry
standards, the maximum allowable temperature
of the water exiting the valve is 120°F (Your
local plumbing codes may require a water
temperature less than 120°F).
• The Rotational Limit Stop may need to
be readjusted seasonally if the inlet water
temperature changes. For example, during the
winter, the cold water temperature is colder
than it is during the summer which could

result in varying outlet temperatures. A water
temperature for a comfortable bath or shower
is typically between 90°F - 110°F.
• Run the water so that the cold water is
as cold as it will get and hot water is as hot
as it will get. Place the handle on the stem
(see page 7, step 4D) and rotate the handle
counterclockwise until the handle stops.
• Place a thermometer in a plastic tumbler
and hold in the water stream. If the water
temperature is above 120°F, the Rotational
Limit Stop must be repositioned clockwise to
decrease valve outlet water temperature to be
less than 120°F or to meet the requirements of
your local plumbing codes.
• To adjust the temperature of the water
coming out of the valve, pull the disc back
to a position where it is possible to remove
the Rotational Limit Stop and readjust the
teeth engagement position to the desired
temperature. Clockwise will decrease the
outlet temperature, counterclockwise will
increase the outlet temperature. Temperature
change per tooth (notch) could be 4° - 16°F
based on inlet water conditions. Repeat as
necessary.
Push disc until fully seated.
WARNING: Failure to re-install Disc after
setting Rotational Limit Stop could result
in scald injury.
• MAKE SURE COLD WATER FLOWS
FROM THE VALVE FIRST. MAKE SURE

DOES NOT EXCEED 120°F OR THE

PLUMBING CODE.
