Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your faucet. If you are unsure about any steps, it is recommended to consult a qualified plumber.

3.1 Перш чым пачаць

• Ensure you have all necessary tools: adjustable wrench, plumber's putty or silicone sealant, Phillips screwdriver, flashlight, and safety glasses.
• Turn off the main water supply to your kitchen sink. Open the existing faucet to drain any remaining water from the lines.
• Ачысціце месца пад ракавінай для лёгкага доступу.

3.2 Этапы ўстаноўкі

1. Remove the old faucet (if applicable). Clean the sink surface thoroughly.
2. Apply a thin bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the base of the new faucet where it meets the sink deck.
3. Insert the faucet body through the single mounting hole on your sink or countertop.
4. From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided mounting hardware (washer and mounting nut). Hand-tighten first, then use an adjustable wrench to snug it firmly, ensuring the faucet is straight. Do not overtighten.
5. Connect the hot and cold water supply lines from the faucet to your angle stops. The faucet comes with 1/2 inch MNPS connections. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks.
6. Once all connections are secure, slowly turn on the main water supply. Check for any leaks immediately.
7. Remove the aerator from the faucet spout and turn on both hot and cold water for a few minutes to flush out any debris from the lines. Reinstall the aerator.
