INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install Floor Bolts
NOTE:
Inspect existing floor flange for damage. If it
is damaged, replace the flange before proceeding.
Replace old T-bolts with new T-bolts (AA), then hand-tighten the
bowl nuts (DD) onto the T-bolts.
2. Install Wax Ring
Turn the bowl (A) upside down and rest it gently on the floor
on something soft (i.e. a towel or piece of cardboard) to avoid
scratching the finish. From the bottom of the bowl (A), firmly
press the wax ring (BB) onto the outlet.
NOTE:
If wax ring has an integral plastic flange, be
sure flange taper points away from the toilet.

3. Position Bowl on Floor Flange
Lower the bowl (A) onto the T-bolts (AA), making sure the
T-bolts (AA) protrude through the mounting holes in base of the
bowl (A).
NOTE:
Keep the bowl level as it is lowered onto the
floor flange. You may need a second person to help
lift the bowl.
Once the bowl is in position, press down with a slight twisting
motion on the top center of the bowl, eventually applying
full body weight to evenly compress the wax ring to create a
watertight seal. Make sure the bowl is as level as possible.
CAUTION:
Do not rock the bowl back and forth as
this may break the seal.
TIP:
It may be necessary to use small wedges
(shims) under the edge of the bowl due to slight
variations in vitreous chinaware or uneven floors.
The bowl should be firmly seated on the floor so it
does not wobble or rock.
