Before You Begin
CAUTION: Risk of personal injury or product damage. Handle

fully extended rod.

2. Install the New Toilet
Install or relocate the supply and outlet as necessary to conform
to the roughing-in dimensions.
Install a supply shut-off valve.
Lay the toilet down onto a padded surface.
From the bottom of the toilet, firmly press a new wax seal around
the toilet outlet.
Remove the temporary rag (if used) from the toilet flange hole.
Align and lower the toilet over the flange and T-bolts.
IMPORTANT! Do not lift or rock the bowl after placement. If you
break the watertight seal, you must install a new wax seal.
Apply your full body weight around the toilet to set the seal.
Place the bolt cap bases over the T-bolts in the ″up″position as
marked.
Place the washers and nuts on the bolt cap bases and T-bolts.
IMPORTANT! Do not overtighten the nut. Overtightening may
cause breakage or chipping of vitreous china.
Carefully tighten the nuts.

3. Install the Lift Rod
Insert the lift rod into the hole in the center of the tank cover.
Hold the lift rod while placing the large washer and nut onto the
other end of the lift rod.
Align the bent horizontal portion of the rod so the holes point
toward the front of the tank.
Hand tighten the nut until snug, then wrench tighten 1/4-turn.
Carefully set the cover onto the tank.
Carefully lift the front of the tank cover just enough to gain
access to the flapper chain and lift rod.

rod.

4. Connect the Supply and Make Adjustments
Connect the supply shut-off valve to the toilet supply shank.
Open the supply shut-off valve slowly to check for leaks. If the
connections have been properly assembled, a slight tightening of
the nuts should stop leakage.
Install the toilet seat according to the packed instructions.
Adjustments
Adjust the tank to the marked waterline.
Rotate the threaded rod clockwise to raise the water level or
counterclockwise to lower the water level as needed.
Test flush the toilet several times, while checking all connections
for leaks, to ensure proper operation.
If the flapper ball does not seat properly when the lift rod is
lowered, provide more flapper chain by:
•Relocating the flapper chain S-hook to the bottom hole in the lift
rod.
•Repositioning the flapper chain S-hook on the flapper chain.
If the toilet does not flush when the lift rod is raised, remove
some of the slack in the flapper chain by:
•Relocating the flapper chain S-hook to the top hole in the lift rod.
•Repositioning the flapper chain S-hook on the flapper chain.
