Before You Begin (cont.)

Instructions are given for installations with 8″(20.3 cm) centers.

For wider installations, adjust all roughing-in dimensions and

copper tube lengths accordingly. If the spout is to be installed

more than 24″(61 cm) from the valves, Kohler recommends

installing a Sioux Chief 652-AD water hammer arrestor designed

for this type of installation. Install the water hammer arrestor

close to the outlet ports of the valves. For more information

contact Sioux Chief at www.siouxchief.com.

Products purchased separately may change valve placement and

alignment.

These instructions cover two methods of installation: installation

on ﬁnished deck or rim, and installation on rough (unﬁnished)

deck. Follow the sections and directions that pertain to your

installation.

Provide an access panel to the valves for servicing.

Installer-supplied copper tubing is to be: 5/8″OD (1/2″Nom.);

and 7/8″OD (3/4″Nom.) for inlets.

Plaster guard diameters are approximately 1-5/8″(4.1 cm) for the

valve, and 7/8″(2.2 cm) for the spout.

The ﬁnished deck material must ﬁt closely to the diameters of the

plastic guards.

The spout plaster guard diameter is 7/8″(2.2 cm) for the spout.

Leave the protective sleeve on the spout supply tube until spout

installation. This is an O-ring sealing surface which may be

damaged when unprotected.

Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of

faucets without notice, as speciﬁed in the Price Book.

1. Prepare the Site

X=the distance from the centerline of the spout inlet base to the

front of the spout base plus 1/2″(2.5 cm).

Y=the distance between the valve centerlines varies. Check the

handle and spout installation instructions for exact dimensions.

Install or relocate the water supplies as needed.

Protect the surfaces of the bath/deck during installation.

Ensure that holes drilled into the deck are not oversized. The

spout and valves require adequate base material strength and

maximum contact area with the deck.

NOTE: Reinforcing material may be required if the deck or rim is

thin. Install 1/2″exterior grade plywood before proceeding.

NOTE: For installations to be covered with tile, the tile thickness

must not exceed 1-1/4″(3.2 cm).

For installations with 8″(20.3 cm) centers using copper tubing

(1/2″nominal, 5/8″OD), cut two 2-7/8″(7.3 cm) pieces and one

2-3/8″(6 cm) piece of tubing.

The diameter of the spout hole should be 1-1/8″(2.9 cm)

maximum.

The diameter of the valve holes should be 1-1/2″(3.8 cm)

maximum.

2. Install the Spout Supply Tube

NOTE: Leave the protective sleeve on the spout supply tube until

the spout installation.

Slide the brass washer from the bottom of the spout supply tube

over the threads until it reaches the spout supply shoulder.

Insert the spout supply tube through the mounting hole from the

top of the deck/bath rim.

The ﬂat portion of the brass washer should face forward, and the

countersunk holes should face up. The spout supply tube will be

suspended by the brass washer.

Slide the plate (oriented with the tabs toward the deck) and

washer onto the spout supply tube from the bottom and thread

on the nut.

Tighten the nut.

Secure the plate to the rough deck with two wood screws.

3. Install the Valves

IMPORTANT! Do not solder the connections during this step.

Thread one mounting nut, ﬂange side up, followed by one ﬁber

washer and one rubber washers onto each valve body.

Insert the 2-7/8″(7.3 cm) long copper tubes between the valve

bodies and 1/2″tee.

For a ﬁnished deck or bath rim installation only, insert the 2-3/8″

(6 cm) long copper tube into the top of the tee.

NOTE: Orient the valve body marked “COLD” so it is on the right

when facing the front of the faucet.

Insert the valve bodies through the mounting holes from the

bottom of the deck/rim.

Hold the tube in place.

Place a collar, ﬂange side up, on each valve body and thread

them down to at least 1-13/16″(4.6 cm) from the top of the valve

stem.

4. Installation on Finished Deck or Rim

NOTE: For installation on a rough (unﬁnished) deck, proceed to the

″Installation on Rough (Unﬁnished) Deck″section.

Tighten the mounting nuts on each valve body from underneath

the deck/rim.

Solder the copper tubes to the valve bodies, tee and spout supply

tube.

Solder the hot and cold water tubes to the valve body inlets (not

shown). Make sure that the cold supply is on the right side.

Go to the ″Check Operation of Valves″section.

5. Installation on Rough Deck

When the tile or deck material is less than 1” (2.5 cm) thick:

Add the thickness of the tile/deck material to 2-1/16″(5.2 cm) to

get the installation height for the valve bodies.

Deck Material+ 2-1/16″(5.2 cm) =Installation Height

Note this dimension. You will need to use it again after

connecting the supply tube.

Adjust the threaded collar until the dimension from the top of the

valve stem to the top of the rough deck surface equals the

determined clearance.

When the tile or deck material is between 1” (2.5 cm) to 1–1/4” (3.2

cm) thick:

Thread the collar down onto each of the valve bodies until the

top of the valve stem is 3-1/16″(7.8 cm) above the surface of the

rough deck.

6. Install the Tubing - Rough Deck Installations

Measure the distance from the bottom of the spout supply tube to

the top of the tee.

Add 1″(2.5 cm) to this measurement, and cut a piece of 1/2″

Nom. (5/8″O.D.) copper tubing to ﬁt into the supply tube and

tee port.

Back off the threaded collars as far as possible without removing

them.

Pivot the valve bodies enough to remove the tee and two pieces

of tubing.

NOTE: If the valve body holes are smaller than recommended, it

may be necessary to remove the entire valve body assembly.

Install the tubing into the tee.

Mate the copper tube from the tee with the spout supply tube.

Pivot the valve bodies onto the two pieces of copper tubing.

DO NOT solder at this time.
