BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
2. Carefully inspect the new toilet and components
for damage.
NOTE: Porcelain toilets are extremely fragile.
Please handle with care to avoid breakage.
3. Plumbing system requirements:
Minimum supply pressure:
1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf & 1.28 gpf/4.8 Lpf – 20 psi
1.0 gpf/3.8 Lpf – 25 psi
Maximum water supply pressure: 80 psi
1. REMOVAL OF EXISTING TOILET
• Turn the water supply off. Flush the toilet, and
sponge out any remaining water.
• Disconnect the water supply connection.
• Remove the bolt caps and nuts, the toilet, and
T-bolts from the closet flange.
• Cover drain with rag to prevent sewer gases from
entering the restroom and scrape off the old wax

toilet is leveled.
IMPORTANT Do not overtighten the nuts,
breakage and chipping can occur.
• If the bolts extend more than ¼” (6 mm) from the
top of the nut, cut off any excess with a hacksaw,
and le the cut edges.
IMPORTANT Product damage can occur if
using a sawblade to cut off the excess T-bolt
length. Make sure vitreous china is protected and
covered.

to the frame, and adjust if required.
B. Make sure water supply valve is fully open.
C. Flush the supply line to clear any debris and clean
inlet screen.
D. Check bowl (main jet, rim holes and trapway), drain
line, and vent for blockage.
E. Check water pressure supply, operating range is
20-80 PSI (503 Series), 25-80 PSI (504 Series).
2. Pressure vessel takes a long time to fill.

inlet screen.
B. Flush the toilet and hold the handle down for 30 to
40 seconds to flush the system.
4. Water continues to flow through the vessel
and will not refill.
A. Check the overall height of the lever in comparison
to the frame, the cable connection to the frame and
lever, and adjust if required.
B. Make sure water supply valve is fully open.
C. Flush the supply line to clear any debris and clean
inlet screen.
D. Check cartridge and adjust if required.

this may result in cracking the tank.
NOTE: It is normal to have some residual water (less
than 1”) inside the tank. The vessel is equipped with a
drain valve to drain off excess water.
8. Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean water closet at least once per week with a cleaner
safe for vitreous china. Spray and wipe clean using soft
cloth. Soft abrasive cleaners may be used to remove
stains If you live in a hard water area, you should make
certain that the holes under the rim are kept clean and
free of mineral build up for proper bowl performance. Use
a long-handled brush to clean the rim holes. Make sure
to periodically clean the in-line filter located in the water
inlet of the water supply valve.
CAUTION: Do not use any in-tank cleaners or deodorizers.
Products containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite) can
seriously damage the Flushmate as well as the fittings in
your tank. This damage can cause leakage and property
damage. For more complete up-to date information
