Locknut
1. Spout Installation
Apply a bead of plumbers putty or other sealant to the underside
of the spout escutcheon according to the putty manufacturer's
instructions.
Thread the shank assembly locknut down against the supply tee.
Remove and discard the plastic thread protector from the shank
assembly.
Starting from the left front side of the lavatory, there are five
mounting holes (Hot-Spout-Cold-Dispenser-Handspray). Insert
the shank assembly from underneath the lavatory up into the
second hole from the left.
Thread the spout escutcheon to the shank assembly until 3/8" (1
cm) of the shank thread is exposed above the escutcheon.
Carefully press the spout onto the shank. Securely hand tighten
the spout to the shank assembly.
Thread the spout escutcheon counterclockwise until it stops.
Ensure that the lift rod hole faces the back of the lavatory.
Locate the "Cold" inlet hole on the underside of the lavatory. It is
marked blue on the supply tee. Turn the supply tee until the
"Cold" inlet faces the "Cold" valve. The "Cold" handle valve is
also marked blue.
Securely tighten the locknut on the shank with a wrench. Do not
overtighten.
Remove any excess putty or sealant.
