STEP 1. Lift and carefully put the toilet on the closet flange so the closet bolts can go through the mounting holes in the base of the toilet. Once the bowl is in the position press the bowl down with slight twisting motion in level position towards the floor. Apply your body weight to evenly compress the wax ring to create a watertight seal. Make sure that the bowl is as level as possible to have a nice tight, waterproof seal.
Do not rock the toilet back and forth and side to side as it may and will break a seal and you will need to replace the wax ring again and start the installation process over. See Figure 4 -
STEP 2. Once the toilet is set and leveled install washers and nuts over the closet bolts. Tighten nuts. Do not overtighten the nuts. It may and will cause damage to the toilet’s ceramic base. See Figure 5
