B. ASSEMBLE FAUCET
1. If not already assembled, install the rubber washer,
spacer, flat (or lock) washer and hex nut onto the
threaded faucet stud.
2. Apply Teflon tape to the end of the faucet stud.
Turn the tubing adapter with a blue collet onto the
stud and hand tighten, then wrench 1/4 turn only.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO CROSS THREAD.
3. Wet the o-ring seals on the faucet spout. Then, re-
move and discard the short piece of tubing from the
faucet body and insert the spout in its place.
4. CONNECT TUBING TO FAUCET AS FOLLOWS.
a. Take the separate length of 3 / 8" black tubing put
an end through the larger hole in the rubber wash-
er. Slide the end onto the larger barb fitting on the
bottom of the faucet.
Note: To soften end of tubing, hold under hot water.
b. Route 1/4" red tubing from RO up through the
sink hole and slide end onto the smaller barb fitting
(heat end if needed) on the faucet.
c. Route 3/8" blue tubing from RO up through the
sink hole and push end all the way into the tubing
adapter fitting on the bottom of the faucet. Pull on
the tubing to be sure it's held firmly in the adapter
fitting. See pages 12 and 13 for tubing connection
