Component Overview and Adjustment:

The flush valve includes an adjustable overflow tube. This tube should be set approximately half an inch below the handle hole inside your toilet tank and then locked into place. This adjustment helps optimize water usage and prevent overflow.

The unit also features an adjustable bracket for the top flush button. This bracket has a sliding mechanism that moves up and down, allowing you to position your flush button correctly for activation.

Operating Instructions

This flush valve operates with a single top-mounted button. To flush the toilet, simply press the button located on the top of your toilet tank. The internal mechanism of the flush valve will lift, allowing water to flow from the tank into the bowl, initiating the flush cycle.

Maintenance

Regular inspection of the flush valve components can help ensure long-term performance. Pay particular attention to the rubber gasket and the rubber grommets on the tank bolts. Over time, these rubber components can degrade and become brittle or mushy, leading to leaks. If you notice any signs of wear or leakage, it is recommended to replace these parts promptly. The included gasket and nylon bolts are designed for this purpose.

Periodically check the adjustable overflow tube and the top button bracket to ensure they remain securely in their set positions. No special cleaning agents are required for the flush valve itself; a soft cloth and mild soap can be used if necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Toilet Runs Continuously: Check the overflow tube setting. Ensure it is not too high, causing water to constantly drain. Also, inspect the rubber gasket at the base of the flush valve for proper seating and any signs of wear.
• Weak Flush: Verify that the water level in the tank is reaching the appropriate height (just below the overflow tube). Ensure the top button mechanism is fully engaging the flush valve.
• Leaking from Tank Base: This often indicates a worn or improperly seated rubber gasket between the tank and the bowl, or degraded rubber grommets on the tank bolts. Replace these components as needed.
• Button Not Activating Flush: Check the adjustable bracket for the top button. Ensure it is correctly positioned and locked, allowing the button to fully depress the flush mechanism.
