Step 2: Install Drinking Water Faucet
Step 2. a. If your kitchen sink does not have an existing 1/2" faucet hole, you will have to drill
one. (Refer to How to drill a Hole on Sink or Countertop). Wipe clean, and dry the area.
Step 2. b. Slip the front plate on the faucet stem, followed by the rubber washer. Insert the
faucet stem into the hole on the countertop. Under the sink, slip on the back rubber washer,
and tighten the nut with the plastic wing.
Step 2. c. Slide the quick connecting up the push-in adapter on the base so that it seats
securely into the faucet stem, then lock it in place by sliding the blue clip under the collet.
Step 2. d. Insert the tubing about 1/2" into the push-in fitting, and again, secure it with the blue
clip.
Step 3: Install Drain Saddle
Step 3. a. Choose a spot on the drainpipe convenient for installing the drain saddle and tubing.
A horizontal pipe is recommended to minimize the dripping sound.
Step 3. b. Drill a 1/4" hole on the drainpipe; paste the black sticky pad around the hole.
Step 3. c. Cut off the 1/4" tubing end to form a 45-degree angle. Slip the plastic nut and front
plate onto the tubing. Insert the tubing into the 1/4" hole in the drainpipe, install the back
plate and tighten two screws with hex nuts while the tubing remains in the hole.
Step 3. d. Tighten the nut on the Drain Saddle by hand. Pull-on the tubing to check if it is
secure.
