Tools You May Need:
- Adjustable wrench
- Pipe wrench (optional)
- Screwdriver (if wall flange requires screws)
- Cleaning cloth
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Installation Area: Turn off the main water supply to the installation point. Ensure the wall surface is clean and free from debris.
- Apply Teflon Tape: Wrap the included Teflon tape clockwise around the threaded pipe coming out of the wall. Apply 3-5 layers to ensure a watertight seal.
- Attach the Wall Flange: Slide the decorative wall flange over the threaded pipe until it rests against the wall.
- Install the Bib Cock: Carefully screw the Jagger JGR56 BAT bib cock onto the threaded pipe. Hand-tighten first, then use an adjustable wrench to tighten it securely. Ensure the tap is oriented correctly with the main spout facing downwards and the secondary outlet accessible. Do not overtighten.

6. Operation
The Jagger JGR56 BAT 2-in-1 Bib Cock features two independent lever handles for controlling water flow.
- Main Spout Operation: The primary lever handle controls the water flow from the main spout. Turn the handle to open or close the water flow. The quarter-turn disc ensures smooth and precise control.
- Secondary Outlet Operation: The secondary lever handle controls the water flow from the lower outlet, designed for connecting washing machine hoses or health faucet pipes. Turn this handle to open or close the water flow to the connected appliance.
Both outlets can be used simultaneously or independently as needed.

7. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and continued performance of your Jagger JGR56 BAT bib cock.
- Cleaning: Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome fixtures. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or acidic cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
- Aerator Cleaning: If water flow becomes restricted, the aerator at the tip of the main spout may be clogged. Unscrew the aerator, rinse it under running water to remove any debris, and reattach it.
- Leak Checks: Periodically check all connections for any signs of leaks. Address any leaks promptly to prevent water damage.
- Corrosion Resistance: The multi-layer plating provides excellent corrosion resistance. However, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or highly acidic/alkaline water can affect the finish.
8. Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Water Leakage from Spout | Worn-out cartridge or O-rings. | Replace the internal cartridge or O-rings. Refer to Image 4 for cartridge components. |
| Water Leakage from Base/Connections | Loose connections or insufficient Teflon tape. | Turn off water supply, tighten connections, or reapply Teflon tape. |
| Low Water Flow | Clogged aerator or debris in the water line. | Clean the aerator (see Maintenance section). Check water supply pressure. |
