8. INSTALL HANDLES
Remove the plaster guards from the hot and cold valves.
Install a stem extension onto each valve stem spline.
Ensure that the splines are properly aligned.
NOTE: There are several handle styles available for this
product. For illustrative purposes, only the Kudu handle is
shown. Installation of the different handle styles is
identical.
Install the handle assembly by threading onto the valve
body. Take care that the splines inside the skirt and stem
extension are engaged. Adjust as required.
NOTE: The stem extension allows for fine adjustment of
handle alignment. To refine the alignment, unthread the
handle assembly, and reposition the stem extension on
the valve stem. Rethread the handle assembly, and check
the handle alignment. Repeat until the alignment is
satisfactory.
