Preparation
1 - If major work is done on the home, the water network must be flushed of all impurities to avoid damaging your mixer.
2 - Before dismantling your old unit identify the hot and cold water feeds, then shut off the water supply
3 - Prepare parts and tools with close access to the connections.
Installing the mixer
1 - Pick up the mixer and water-tight seal. Place the water-tight seal over the two hoses.
2 - Position the water-tight so that it sits securely on the base of the tap and hold it there.
3 - Pass the hoses through the hole in the sink for the mixer.
4 - Place the mixer so that the water-tight seal is in contact with the sink, . Hold the mixer in this position.
5 - Hint: use the hoses to hold the mixer firmly until it is attached.
6 - Place the stabilization ring over the hoses, and then along the threaded rod. Similarly, place the tightening seal and then, lastly, place the tightening nut. Hand-tighten the nut to the maximum.
7 - Release the mixer, which is now held in place, and visually check its proper orientation. Adjust it if necessary.
8 - Hold the mixer and use a 13 mm open-end wrench to tighten the nut without forcing.
Turning on water
1 - Make sure that the seal is present in the hoses. If necessary, add a fiber or rubber seal. Screw the left-hand hose onto the hot water faucet, and the right-hand hose on the cold water faucet. Tighten with a 19 mm open-end wrench. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hoses.
2 - Open the two water lines and make sure the faucets do not leak.
3 - Make sure the mixer is operating properly.
