[. . . ] IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS ENCLOSED CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury due to hot water burns, make sure the enclosed labels are applied where specified on the label. NOTICE TO INSTALLER: Place this label on the water heater next to the temperature adjustment knob. WARNING: These series of tub/shower valves do not adjust automatically for changes in temperature at the hot water heater or inlet. If the temperature setting of the hot water heater or inlet is changed, the setting on these valves must be adjusted manually! [. . . ] To prevent damage to finish on shower arm, insert wall end of shower arm into shower flange (3) before screwing arm into riser connection. Important: If it is necessary to cut the copper tube, the end must be chamfered free of burrs to prevent cutting or nicking O-ring inside the spout. Slide spout over copper tube flush with the finished tub or wall surface. Tighten set screw (2), but do not overtighten. Solder adapter to tube taking care to keep solder away from O-ring groove. Thread tub/spout onto adapter, taking care not to damage O-ring, and hand tighten until spout is firmly against finished wall and all slack is taken up behind wall. IMPORTANT: The Rotational Limit Stop is used to limit the amount of hot water available such that, if set properly, the user will not be scalded if the handle accidentally is rotated all the way to "hot" when a person is showering or filling a tub. The first position allows the LEAST amount of hot water to mix with the cold water in the system. In the first position the water will be the coldest possible when the handle is turned all the way to hot. As you move the Rotational Limit Stop counterclockwise, you progressively add more and more hot water in the mix. The last position to the left will result in the greatest amount of hot water to the mix, and the greatest risk of scald injury if someone accidentally turns the valve handle all the way to the hot side while showering or filling a tub. For a comfortable bath or shower is typically between 90°F - 110°F. Run the water so that the cold water is as cold as it will get and hot water is as hot as it will get. Place the handle on the stem (see page 6, step 4D) and rotate the handle counterclockwise until the handle stops. If the water temperature is above 120°F, the Rotational Limit Stop must be repositioned clockwise to decrease valve outlet water temperature to be less than 120°F or to meet the requirements of your local plumbing codes. To adjust the temperature of the water coming out of the valve, pull the disc back to a position where it is possible to remove the Rotational Limit Stop and readjust the teeth WARNING: In some instances, setting the Rotational Limit Stop in the hottest position engagement position to the desired tem(full counterclockwise) could result in scald perature. Temperature change al Limit Stop so that the water coming out of the valve will not scald the user when the per tooth (notch) could be 4° - 16°F based on handle of the valve is rotated to the hot side. According to the majority of industry stanWARNING: Failure to re-install Disc after dards, the maximum allowable temperature of setting Rotational Limit Stop could result the water exiting the valve is 120°F (Your local in scald injury. For example, during the winter, DOES NOT EXCEED 120°F OR THE the cold water temperature is colder than it is MAXIMUM ALLOWED BY YOUR LOCAL during the summer which could result in varyPLUMBING CODE. The O-ring, which acts as a spacer to steady the sleeve, should rest behind the bonnet nut. If your model requires a spacer (1), insert it into the sleeve (2) and push it to the front. Secure the escutcheon (1) and backplate (2) (if your model has one) to the bracket (3) using the 2 screws provided (4). [. . . ] The valve cartridge assembly must always be put back in the same position. After you have finished the installation, turn on valve to make sure COLD WATER FLOWS FIRST. To remove valve cartridge from body, shut off water supplies and remove handle and bonnet nut. Do not pry the valve cartridge out of the body with a screwdriver. [. . . ]
