INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

:DEDEEN SLOOT

1. Shut off water supply to tank. Flush tank and sponge out remaining water.

Remove old fill valve assembly and tank lever, using pliers if necessary.

2. If you have a Fluidmaster bowl cleaning system, this will need to be

removed (if you don't have a cleaning system, continue to Step 3). TAKE

CAUTION when removing bowl cleaning system from the tank, as the

cleaning agent may drip from tubes, which can stain hands, clothing

and carpet

s. Carefully disconnect the tubes from the fill valve and the

overflow pipe. Do not disconnect tubes from the dispenser. Place dispenser

unit in a bucket in an upright position.

3. Disassemble small parts – LOCK NUT, SHANK WASHER and ANGLE

ADAPTER for Valve installation (required); CONE WASHER and COUPLING

NUT for Water Supply Connection (optional–see Step 14).

4. Carefully remove CONE WASHER from center of SHANK WASHER. Place

SHANK WASHER on threaded shank of n

ew VALVE. Place flat surface

against valve.

5. Unbolt tank from bowl, then lift off tank. Remove washers and nuts from

bottom of tank, then remove old bolts. Remove old gasket.

6. Remove old flush valve, including flapper, using wrench if necessary.

7. When installed, the top of the overflow pipe on the new flush valve should be

at least 1" below the hole in the tank where the tank flush lever is mounted. If

necessary, cut the overflow pipe to achieve this height. The criti

cal level

mark on the fill valve (identified by a C.L. mark on the Fluidmaster Fill

Valve) should be at least 1" above the top of the overflow pipe. This is a

plumbing code.

8. To adjust the height of the fill valve, twist the threaded shank in or out of valve

body. The height of the valve adjusts from 9 to 14 inches. On some models, a

clicking noise will be heard when adjusting the height. This is normal.

9. Position valve inside tank. Push down on the valve shank (not the top) while

tightening l

ock nut. Hand-tighten only. Make sure float cup does not touch

toilet tank walls, trip mechanism or flush valve.
