5. Installation
5.1 Before You Begin
- Turn off the water supply at the main shut-off valve.
- Clear the area under the sink for easy access.
- Gather necessary tools: adjustable wrench, screwdriver, plumber's putty or silicone sealant, flashlight.
5.2 Mounting the Faucet
- If using the deckplate for a 3-hole sink, apply a thin bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the underside edge of the deckplate.
- Place the deckplate (if used) and then the faucet body into the sink hole(s). Ensure the faucet is oriented correctly.
- From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided washer and mounting nut. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench to snug it up, ensuring the faucet is stable and straight.
5.3 Connecting Water Supply Lines
- Connect the hot and cold water supply lines from the faucet to your home's hot and cold water valves. The lines are typically marked (red for hot, blue for cold) or can be identified by their connection to the faucet.
- Hand-tighten the connections, then use an adjustable wrench to tighten an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Do not overtighten.
5.4 Installing the Sprayer Hose and Weight
- Feed the pull-out sprayer hose through the faucet spout.
- Connect the sprayer hose to the quick-connect fitting on the main faucet body underneath the sink. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
- Attach the sprayer weight to the sprayer hose at the marked location (or approximately 6-8 inches from the bottom of the sprayer head) to ensure proper retraction.
- Connect the pull-out sprayer head to the end of the hose.
5.5 Final Steps
- Slowly turn on the main water supply.
- Check all connections for leaks. Tighten if necessary.
- Remove the sprayer head and turn on the faucet to flush out any debris from the lines for approximately one minute.
- Reattach the sprayer head.

7. Maintenance
7.1 Cleaning the Faucet

7.2 Aerator Cleaning
- If water flow decreases or becomes erratic, the aerator may be clogged.
- Unscrew the aerator from the tip of the sprayer head.
