INSTALL REVERSE OSMOSIS FAUCET

1. Locate and organize your RO faucet install parts. Refer to

Fig. 16. 

2. Snap the o-ring into the groove on the bottom of the ring

and slide the monitor ring onto the faucet stud. The monitor

ring LED wire must be routed through the sink or counter-

top hole and through the spacer, if used. See Fig. 16. 

3. Locate the 3/8" black tubing and push one end onto the

3/8" faucet barb fitting, see Fig. 17.

4. Move the RO system into position, under the sink.

(Referring to page 12, hang the system on cabinet wall, or

lay on the floor surface, as desired.)

NOTE: If you routed the red drain tubing directly to a

remote drain point (see page 11), disregard step 5 and

move on to step 6.

5. Route the 1/4" red tubing from the bottom, up through the

faucet mounting hole. Push the end of the tubing onto the

1/4" barb fitting. See Fig. 17.

NOTE: Tubing lengths should allow for the removal of the

assembly from the hanger washers for servicing. If tub-

ing lengths are shortened for neater appearance, it may

be necessary to keep the assembly on the hanger wash-

ers for service.

6. Work tubing and the faucet stud down, into the mounting

hole.

7. On the underside of the sink or countertop, install the spac-

er, plastic bushing, flat washer, and hex nut. Slide the large

steel washer into place between the bushing and spacer.

Then, tighten the hex nut securely. Make sure that the LED

wire is in a position so that it will not be cut, pinched or

kinked before tightening the faucet assembly.

8. Thread the tubing connector onto the bottom of the faucet

stud.

9. Push the end of the 3/8" blue tubing from the RO, into the

tubing connector. See Fig. 17.
