2. Remove Old Components (if applicable): Carefully remove the existing lever, escutcheon, and any related parts from your faucet. Keep track of any small screws or washers.
3. Prepare the Headvalve: Ensure the headvalve area is clean and free of debris.
4. Install Extension to Headvalve: Attach the extension component to the headvalve according to your faucet's design. Ensure a snug and secure fit.
5. Position Bell Shaped Escutcheon: Place the bell-shaped escutcheon over the headvalve and extension, ensuring it sits flush against the faucet body or countertop.

5. Operating Instructions

The Rohl ZZ9401902B-PN metal lever is designed for intuitive operation, typically controlling the cold water flow of your faucet. The 'Cold' script on the screw cover cap indicates its primary function.

• Turning Water On/Off: Rotate the lever to control the flow of cold water. The direction of rotation (clockwise or counter-clockwise) for on/off may vary based on your faucet's internal mechanism.
• Adjusting Flow: The lever allows for precise adjustment of the cold water flow rate.

6. Maintenance and Care

To maintain the polished nickel finish and ensure the longevity of your Rohl metal lever, follow these care instructions:

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
• Drying: After cleaning, dry the surface thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
• Avoid Polishes: Do not use waxes, polishes, or other abrasive substances on the polished nickel finish unless specifically recommended by Rohl for this product.
• Check Connections: Periodically check the tightness of the lever and escutcheon connections to prevent looseness or leaks.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Rohl metal lever, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Lever is Loose: If the lever feels loose, gently tighten the cold mark screw. Do not overtighten, as this can strip the screw or damage the lever.
• Water Leakage: If you observe water leaking from around the escutcheon or lever base, turn off the water supply immediately. Check that all connections are properly seated and tightened. You may need to re-seat the extension to the headvalve or ensure the escutcheon is correctly positioned. If the leak persists, consult a professional plumber.
• Difficulty Operating Lever: If the lever is stiff or difficult to turn, ensure no debris is obstructing its movement. Avoid forcing the lever. If the issue persists, the internal cartridge of your faucet may need inspection or replacement by a qualified professional.
