not volume. Remove the 3mm hex set screw (27)
from the handle then slide the handle onto the
spindle (11).

position then warm and stopping at the hot position.
If additional rotational friction is required to maintain
the handle position, tighten the packing nut (10).

minutes to completely flush the system. If system is
quite dirty, remove valve spindle to ensure proper
flushing.
10. IMPORTANT: This valve is equipped with a limit
stop screw (8) to be used to limit the valve handle
from being turned to excessively hot water discharge
temperatures.
