Setup and Installation

This dual flush valve is designed for easy replacement in two-piece toilets. Ensure the toilet tank is empty and disconnected from the water supply before beginning installation.

1. Prepare the Toilet: Turn off the water supply to the toilet and flush to empty the tank. Disconnect the water supply line from the fill valve.
2. Remove Old Valve: Unscrew the nuts holding the toilet tank to the bowl (if applicable) and carefully lift the tank off. Remove the old flush valve by unscrewing its mounting nut from underneath the tank. Clean the area around the drain hole.
3. Install New Valve: Place the new T Tulead Dual Flush Valve into the drain hole from inside the tank, ensuring the sealing gasket is properly seated. From underneath the tank, secure the valve with its mounting nut, tightening it firmly but not excessively to avoid cracking the tank.
4. Reassemble Toilet: Reattach the toilet tank to the bowl (if removed) and reconnect the water supply line to the fill valve.
5. Adjust Water Level: Turn on the water supply and allow the tank to fill. Check for leaks. Adjust the water level in the tank if necessary, typically to the waterline marked inside the tank or just below the overflow tube.
6. Test Flush: Perform several test flushes to ensure proper operation of both full and half flush modes.

Operating Instructions

The T Tulead Dual Flush Valve provides two flushing options to optimize water usage:

• Full Flush: Press the flush button completely down for a full flush. This releases the maximum amount of water from the tank for solid waste.
• Half Flush (Water-Saving): Press the flush button partially down for a half flush. This releases a reduced amount of water, ideal for liquid waste, saving water with each flush.

The flush volume for both full and half flushes can be adjusted using the internal mechanism (refer to Figure 3 and 5 for visual guidance). This allows you to fine-tune water usage based on your needs.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your dual flush valve:

• Cleaning: Periodically inspect the valve for mineral buildup or debris. Turn off the water supply, drain the tank, and gently clean the valve components with a soft brush and mild cleaner. Avoid abrasive chemicals.
• Seal Inspection: Check the rubber seals and gaskets for wear or damage. Replace them if they appear cracked or brittle to prevent leaks.
• Water Quality: Hard water can lead to mineral deposits. Consider using a toilet bowl cleaner that helps prevent buildup, but ensure it is safe for plastic components.

Troubleshooting

If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, it may be necessary to consult a professional plumber or replace the unit.
