Installation Procedure (continued)
3. Place the tank upside down onto some
padding. Inspect the smaller fill valve nut
and larger flush valve nut for a secure
connection.
Try to tighten the nuts with your hands
see Ill. 3). If loose, tighten the nut hand
tight and an additional 1/4 turn for the
smaller fill valve nut and an additional 1/2
turn for the larger flush valve nut.
Place the tank-to-bowl gasket onto the
flush valve nut. While pressing down,
spread the gasket over the nut until the
gasket touches the bottom of the tank. A
slight gap between the tank bottom and
the gasket is allowable.
4. Lay the tank down on its back. Place a
rubber washer onto a brass bolt. Reach
inside the tank and position the bolt
through one of the holes in the bottom of
the tank (see Ill. 4).
On the outside of the tank, place a metal
washer and nut onto the bolt. Hold the
bolt centered in the hole and tighten
the nut finger tight. Turn the nut an
additional 1/2 turn with a wrench. Repeat
this process for the remaining hole in the
tank.
5. Pick up the tank and carefully guide the
brass bolts to align the tank with the
bowl. Attach a metal washer and nut to
each bolt. Tighten the nuts finger tight
and inspect that the tank is level (see Ill.
5). Once level, tighten the bolts equally
until the tank makes THREE POINTS OF
CONTACT with the bowl.

N OTE: The toilet bowl has three points of contact, which will actually contact the bottom of the
toilet tank when properly installed. The location of these points can be seen on the bowl at the
tank receiving area. The three points are front left (1), front right (2), and back center (3). Recall
these three points during the Toilet Tank installation.
