Installation of Drain Saddle Assembly
The system comes supplied with a drain saddle and mounting
hardware which fits around a standard 1½"
O.D.drain pipe (See Figure 4).
a. The saddle should be installed above the trap and on the
vertical or horizontal tailpiece. It should never be placed
close to the outlet of a garbage disposal (See Figure 5).
b. Position saddle assembly on drain pipe to allow adequate
space for drilling through pipe. If possible, angle the drain
saddle fitting toward spigot location.
c. Tighten the drain saddle screws evenly and firmly so a
good seal is made. Avoid over tightening.
d. Drill a 5/16" hole in the drain pipe through the drain fitting
opening. Support the drain against drilling pressure.
e. Insert black drain line tubing into compression nut and
tighten.
NOTE: Some state or local codes may require that the drain saddle be served by a trap other than the
one serving the garbage disposal. Before making a connection as shown in Figure 4, please check with code authorities.

b. Slide the clamp over the copper tubing and tighten the bottom screw firmly to hold the clamp in position.
(See Figure 3a & 3b)
c.
Slide brass nut, plastic sleeve and tube insert on to the green 1/4" plastic tubing and thread onto valve outlet.
d. Pierce the copper tubing by turning the needle valve handle (clockwise) until it is firmly seated. The valve is closed in
this position.
e. Turn on main supply valve to pressurize cold water line. Immediately check for any signs of leaks.
f.
When ready to supply water to the system, turn valve handle (counter-clockwise) until fully open.
