Turn off the main’s cold water supply. The main stopcock is usually found where the supply enters the building.

It is also recommended that any hot water heating systems are turned off.
-
Drain the hot and cold-water systems. To ensure complete drainage, open all taps.
-
Position the tap over the hole, ensuring the rubber seal is positioned properly between the tap body and the sink. Or in the case that the product includes a base plate ensure the rubber seal is between the base plate and the sink.

Horse Shoe Fixing Kit – Using the fixing nut(s) supplied, screw the short threaded bar(s) into the hole(s) underneath the body. Next, screw the Flexi tails into each of the other holes (ensure these are screwed in firmly). Please make sure the threaded bar(s) are fully through the sinkhole. Place the rubber bracket gasket over the threaded bar(s) along with the brass bracket and locking nut(s) and tighten up. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.

Fixing Nut and Threaded Tail Fixing Kit- Please fix the threaded tail to the bottom of the tap body and pass it through the fixing hole on the worktop. Then fix the fixing nut underneath the worktop and tighten it. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN

Tip: In order to help firm tightening of the tap to the worktop, you can position the tap about 90 degrees anticlockwise away from the normal position when tightening the black fixing nut by hand underneath the worktop. Then grasp the tap and turn clockwise until it sits straight in a normal position.
-
Connection to the water supply is usually achieved using flexible tap connectors. PLEASE NOTE: To comply with water regulations, isolating valves should be fitted in the pipework beneath the tap. This enables each supply to be independently isolated which makes it easier to service and /or remove the tap. Once all the connections
are made, the mains water supply can be turned back on and the system refilled. -
Now check for any leaks. At this stage it is recommended that the whole system be flushed to remove any foreign matter, also check the seating is free from the swarf, as this will interfere with the water seal between the valve and the seating. All water heating systems may now be turned on.
