Apply one to two turns of PTFE tape (not included) to
threads of fi ttings. Thread fi ttings into ports of fi lter body.
Tighten fi ttings snuggly, but DO NOT over tighten.

Insert end of tubing into compression fi tting; hand tighten
nut onto threads of fi ttings.

Turn on the incoming water sup-
ply to fl ush out the fi lter into a bucket
or pan thereby removing fi ne par-
ticles of charcoal which may be pres-
ent in the fi lter body. When water is
clear, stop the fl ushing procedure.

Use of the two (2) included plastic mounts is recom-
mended, particularly if your tubing is of a non-rigid material.
Proceed as follows:
a)
Peel protective backing from mounting pads and fi rmly
apply to a clean surface. Mount pads 8 3/8” to 8 1/2” apart
in a direction that most readily accommodates your tub-
ing. Adhesive backing may prove inadequate on certain
surfaces. A wood screw or other suitable fastener may be
use by piercing through the center of the mounting pad.
CAUTION:
Make certain fasteners do not contact hidden
electrical wiring.
b)
Pass straps through eyelets of mounting pads with
the toothed surface of the straps facing you.
c)
Position the CFS717 fi lter over mounting pads, loop
straps around bass fi ttings in fi lter body and fasten straps
securely.
IMPORTANT:
Straps cannot be unfastened
once closed—make certain fi lter is correctly mounted
before fastening.
d)
When replacing fi lter, cut straps with snippers or
scissors. A new mounting kit is furnished with each re-
placement fi lter.
NOTE:
Activated carbon fi lters are not intended for use where
water is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality.
