Tools Required (Not Included):
- Adjustable wrench
- Screwdriver
- Drill (if new holes are needed)
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Sealant tape (Teflon tape)
Installation Steps:
- Prepare Water Supply: Turn off the main water supply to the installation area. Drain any remaining water from the pipes.
- Mark Mounting Holes: Measure the distance between your existing hot and cold water outlets. The recommended installation hole distance for this faucet is 13.5-16.5 cm. Mark the positions on the wall where the faucet will be mounted, ensuring they are level.
- Install Mounting Brackets: Attach the eccentric connectors (if supplied) to the hot and cold water pipes in the wall, ensuring they are securely tightened and sealed with sealant tape. Adjust them so the distance matches the faucet's inlets and they are level.
- Attach Faucet Body: Place the decorative escutcheons over the eccentric connectors. Then, attach the main faucet body to the eccentric connectors. Hand-tighten first, then use an adjustable wrench to secure, being careful not to overtighten. Ensure the faucet is level and firmly against the wall.
- Connect Spray Gun: Connect the coiled hose of the spray gun to the designated outlet on the faucet body. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
- Mount Spray Gun Holder: Choose a convenient location near the faucet to mount the spray gun holder. Mark the drill holes, drill, insert anchors, and secure the holder with screws.
- Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for leaks. If leaks are detected, turn off the water supply, tighten the connections, and re-test.

- Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, ammonia, bleach, or other harsh chemicals, as these can damage the stainless steel finish.
