9) From above the sink, pass the black 3/8” drain tube through the hole in the sink. Installation of the
faucet from this point is far easier with a helper.
10) Hold the faucet centered in the hole and in the desired position. Be sure the large rubber seal is
centered under the large chrome escutcheon base plate.
11) From underneath the sink, position the following parts in this order… Install the large split washer,
plastic spacer (plastic spacer is installed with the open side facing up and parallel with the black
tubes), metal flat washer, internal locking washer and hex nut onto the faucet stud. Discard the
included small rubber washer as it is not used with the faucet provided for this system.
12) While maintaining all parts in the centered and desired position, carefully and securely tighten the
hex nut on the faucet stud. (A basin wrench is handy for this step) WARNING; Over-tightening
the faucet to the sink may damage the faucet and or sink.
13) Install the provided John Guest® quick connect fitting to the bottom of the faucet stud. Securely
push the blue 1/4” tube coming from the horizontal inline post filter into this fitting.
14) The black 3/8” tube previously connected to the faucet will need to be attached to the drain
connector that will be installed in a later step. It is of utmost importance that this 3/8” tube be
trimmed so there is little extra tubing from the connecting points. There can be no loops, sharp
bends or kinks in this tube. When installed, the drain clamp must be lined up with the hole to be
drilled in the drain pipe. The air gap faucet must always have unrestricted flow from the faucet to
the drain. A restriction in this portion of the system will result in water dripping or leaking from
the small hole on the side of the faucet just under the dispensing handle.
15) The faucet dispensing handle may be pushed and held down for instant water or pulled up into the
locked position for continuous flow.
