Place the temperature control knob (1)
on volume handle and rotate to the mixed position
(if required). DO NOT SECURE WITH SCREW.
Turn on water supplies; let the water run until
both hot and cold water is as hot/cold as possible.
Place thermometer in a plastic tumbler, and hold
the tumbler in the water stream. Record the tem
-
perature reading.
If the water temperature is above 120°F,
remove the temperature control knob (1) and ro
-
tate the limit stop (2) clockwise one tooth for every
4°F - 6°F (approximate) change in temperature. If
water temperature is cooler than desired, rotate
the limit stop counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT:
The first position of the Rotational
Limit Stop (the Limiter) is that position that
restricts the rotation of the stem the most and
is at the maximum clockwise setting. According
to industry standards, the maximum allowable
temperature of the water exiting from the valve
is 120
o
F. This temperature may vary in your local
area. The Rotational Limit Stop may need to be
readjusted if the inlet water temperature changes.
For instance, during the winter, the cold water
temperature is colder than it is during the sum-
mer which could result in varying outlet tempera
-
tures. Typical temperature for a comfortable bath
or shower is between 90
o
–110
o
F.
Secure temperature control knob (1) with
screw (2) and snap control cover (3) onto
knob. NOTE:
Secure screw until handle
wobble is reduced, DO NOT FULLY
TIGHTEN. Overtightening will result in dif-
ficulty to operate temperature control knob.
Screw is self locking.
