Installation Instructions

This tub spout utilizes a 1/2-inch slip-fit connection. Ensure your existing plumbing is compatible with this connection type.

Image 2: Tub Spout Connection Types. This diagram illustrates the difference between IPS (threaded) and CC (slip fit) connections. The Moen 4325BN uses a CC (Slip Fit) connection, which requires a 5/32" hex wrench to secure the tub spout to the pipe.

Tools Required:

• 5/32-inch Hex Wrench (Allen Key)
• Plumber's Tape (optional, for threaded connections if applicable)
• Soft Cloth

Installation Steps:

1. Prepare the Area: Ensure the water supply to the tub is turned off. Remove any existing tub spout. Clean the pipe extending from the wall.
2. Inspect the Pipe: The pipe extending from the wall should be approximately 1/2-inch in diameter and extend out 3/4 to 1 inch from the finished wall surface for optimal slip-fit connection.
3. Install the Spout: Slide the new Moen Greenfield tub spout onto the pipe. Ensure it is pushed firmly against the wall.
4. Secure the Spout: Locate the set screw on the underside of the tub spout, near the wall. Use a 5/32-inch hex wrench to tighten this set screw. Do not overtighten, but ensure it is snug to prevent the spout from rotating or pulling away from the wall.
5. Test for Leaks: Turn the water supply back on. Run water through the tub spout and check for any leaks around the connection point. If leaks occur, turn off the water, slightly adjust the spout, and re-tighten the set screw.

Operating Instructions

The Moen Greenfield 4325BN tub spout features a diverter for directing water flow.

• Tub Fill: To fill the tub, ensure the diverter lift rod is in the down position. Water will flow directly from the tub spout.
• Shower Mode: To divert water to the showerhead, pull the lift rod on top of the tub spout upwards. Water will then flow from the showerhead. Push the lift rod back down to return water flow to the tub spout.

Maintenance and Cleaning

To maintain the finish and performance of your Moen Greenfield tub spout, follow these guidelines:

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the spout regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish.
• Mild Soap Solution: For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly with water, then dry with a soft cloth.
• Prevent Water Spots: Wipe the spout dry after each use to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your tub spout, refer to the following common solutions:

• Low Water Flow: Check for obstructions in the spout or aerator (if applicable). Ensure the main water supply is fully open.
• Leaking from Spout: If water drips from the spout when the diverter is engaged, the diverter mechanism may need cleaning or replacement. For leaks at the wall connection, ensure the set screw is tightened correctly and the pipe is properly seated.
• Diverter Not Engaging: If the diverter lift rod does not fully engage or disengage, check for mineral buildup or obstructions. Clean the mechanism if necessary.
• Spout Loose: Re-tighten the set screw on the underside of the spout using a 5/32-inch hex wrench.

For persistent issues, contact Moen customer support or a qualified plumber.
