This faucet is designed for easy installation on 1-hole or 3-hole sinks. All necessary mounting hardware is included.

3. Ensure the installation hole diameter is between 1.26-1.97 inches.

Installation Steps:

1. Prepare the Faucet: If installing on a 3-hole sink, place the deck plate over the sink holes. Insert the faucet body through the center hole.
2. Secure the Faucet: From underneath the sink, thread the rubber washer, metal washer, and mounting nut onto the faucet shank. Tighten the mounting nut securely to prevent movement.
3. Connect Water Supply Lines: Connect the hot and cold water supply lines from the faucet to your angle stops. Ensure the hot water line connects to the hot water supply and the cold to the cold. Hand-tighten, then use a wrench for a quarter turn.
4. Install Gravity Ball Weight: Attach the gravity ball weight to the pull-down hose approximately 6 inches from the bottom of the loop. This ensures the sprayer retracts properly.
5. Test for Leaks: Turn on the main water supply slowly and check all connections for leaks. Operate the faucet to ensure proper function and spray modes.

Cleaning the Faucet:
