Installation

The T-Connector needs to be fitted to both the hot and cold water pipes before installing the Tub Filler. The T-Connector should be about 3 7/8” below the surface of the finished floor and the floor opening should be 2.5” in diameter. See figure B.
IMPORTANT: This product should be installed by professional installers.
IMPORTANT: It is strongly recommended to dry fit all parts before final installation.
IMPORTANT: Provide adequate clearance around the Tub Filler.

Figure C. Secure water pipes to floor joist with pipe supports. Apply PTFE tape to the threads of the T-Connector before connecting to the water pipes. Do not overtighten the connections.
Alternate Installation Method
The installation of the T-Connector can be bypass in some difficult installation site. The following diagram shows the use of the optional 3/8” male to 1/2” male adapter as a connector to the rest of the plumbing system.
IMPORTANT: Install shut off ball valves for the water supply to Tub Filler at an easily accessible location.

1. Insert the Top Tube over Water Supply Hoses. Thread the Top Tube to the Body and tighten it fully. Slide the Escutcheon onto the Bottom Tube and connect it to the Top Tube. Make sure the Tubes are fully tightened.
2. Remove the Cap and Setscrew from the Handle and loosen the Setscrew with the included Hex Wrench. Insert the Handle on the cartridge stem, tighten the Setscrew and install Cap to the Handle. (NOTE: The top Setscrew can be loosened to swivel the spout if needed. Tighten the Setscrew if the position of the spout was changed.)
3. Make sure the floor is level in both directions. Determine the distance from the finished wall to the center of the floor water supply hose. Make sure there is enough clearance around the Tub Filler. Mark the center line. Drill a 2.5” diameter hole for the water supply hoses. Insert the water supply hoses through the hole and place tub filler assembly on the floor and check for alignment.
4. With the Tub Filler Assembly aligned in the desired position, mark each of the 4 mounting holes from the base on the floor. Use a drill with 3/8” drill bit, drill the holes 2” deep and insert the included anchors. Make sure the anchors are flush with the finished floor.
5. Place the Tub Filler over the T-Connector  and connect both water supply hoses to theT-Connector. Do not overtighten the connections.
6. Hold the Tub Filler Assembly in place and install the four Mounting Screws. Check alignment and level before fully tightening the screws. After tightening the screws slide the Escutcheon down to cover the flange.
7. Connect the Hand Shower Hose (5) to the Tub Filler with the hex nut end to the Tub Filler. (NOTE: Make sure the rubber washers (1) are installed on both end of the hose)

Hand tighten the Hand Shower Wand (6) to the Hand Shower Hose (5). The Hand Shower Wand should be placed in the Holder (3) when not in use.
Remove the aerator assembly (2) from the spout and turn on water for 1 minute and check for leaks at all connections. Move the Handle (4) throughout the temperature range to flush out any debris in both hot and cold water lines thoroughly. The installation is now complete.

Operations

To operate the tub filler simply move the handle to the ON position to turn on the water.
Adjust the temperature by moving the handle from side to side to set the desired water temperature.
To operate the hand shower wand, remove the hand shower from its holder and direct the jets into the tub. Pull the diverter knob on the faucet body. Push the diverter knob to direct the water back to the spout.
