Installation Guide

3. Install the Trim
Firmly press the valve stem adapter onto the valve stem.
Secure the valve stem adapter to the valve stem with the correct
length screw, as selected in the Install the Valve Stem Adapter
section of this guide.
Thread the two threaded studs into the threaded holes of the
valve.
Place the front plate assembly over the threaded studs.
Thread the nuts onto the studs to secure the front plate assembly
to the wall. Do not overtighten the nuts.
NOTE: If the front plate assembly does not lay flat on the wall
surface, loosen the nuts and adjust the threaded studs, then
re-tighten the nuts. The maximum distance between the threaded
studs from the wall is 7/16 (11 mm).
Visually inspect the front plate assembly to ensure that the foam
seal is completely covering the wall opening. If not, stop the
installation and repair the wall opening.
Place the escutcheon against the wall. The drain holes in the
escutcheon should be positioned downward.
Thread the handle assembly onto the hub of the front plate
assembly to secure the escutcheon in place. The handle will be
pointing down to the 6 o’clock position.
