2. Install Deck Plate (for 3-hole sinks): If your sink has three holes, place the deck plate over the center hole, ensuring the gasket is properly seated underneath.
3. Mount the Faucet: Insert the faucet body through the center hole (or deck plate hole). Secure it from underneath the sink using the provided mounting hardware. Hand-tighten first, then use the included wrench for final tightening.
4. Connect Water Supply Lines: Attach the hot and cold water supply lines to the corresponding inlets on the faucet body. Use Teflon tape on the threads and tighten securely with an adjustable wrench. Connect the other ends to your hot and cold water stops.
5. Install Pop-Up Drain: Follow the separate instructions provided with the pop-up drain assembly. Ensure a watertight seal using plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the drain flange.
6. Test for Leaks: Once all connections are made, slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for any signs of leakage. If leaks occur, tighten the connections as needed.
