-
Turn off water and relieve water pressure.
-
Remove the handle by removing the handle button and handle screw.
-
Remove the retainer clip from the top of the faucet body, using pliers if necessary.
-
Remove the cartridge with the core. (If you are unable to remove/pull the cartridge out, use the Moen cartridge removal tool, Part # 1006964489.)
-
Clean the valve to prep for installation:
-
After the existing cartridge has been removed, use a small wire brush to remove any debris remaining from the rubber gaskets or o-rings that may be stuck to the walls or cavities of the brass valve.
-
After cleaning the valve, take a small flashlight to look into the valve for any leftover debris.
Purge the valve slightly, by slightly opening the integral stops to flush the valve of debris. Once the brass valve is clean of debris, close the integral stops and proceed with installing the new cartridge.
IMPORTANT NOTE : If you don’t clean out any existing debris from the valve, the performance of the new cartridge will fail. -
Apply silicone grease to the sides of the rubber gaskets on the new cartridge before installing. Install the new cartridge using the plastic alignment tool included.
-
Reinstall the retainer clip, handle and handle button.
-
Turn on water and check for leaks.
