Title: Step 1


1
Step 1 Remove Existing Aerator Remove the
faucet aerator by turning it counterclockwise.
Usually you can take it off with your fingers but
if needed, use pliers. Save the aerator. If you
move you will want to replace it.
Step 2- Check Type of Threads Note the type of
threads your faucet has. If it has threads on
the OUTSIDE (1), the diverter valve should screw
right on. Go to step 3. If it has threads on the
INSIDE (2), you have to use the universal adaptor
provided. Go to step 4

Step 3- Attach Diverter Valve Screw the diverter
valve directly onto the faucet threads using only
finger pressure. Once the valve is screwed on
finger tight, use a pair of pliers to tighten
snugly.

Step 4- Attach Diverter Valve w/ Adaptor Place
the gasket (rubber washer) inside the universal
adaptor. Screw the adaptor onto the faucet using
only finger pressure. Once the valve is screwed
on, use a pair of pliers to tighten snugly. The
rotating collar on the diverter valve makes it
easy to screw on once the universal adaptor is in
place. Tighten well.

Adaptor
The threads on the valve and faucet are easily
damaged. To avoid problems ensure that the valve
and / or adaptor go on straight. If you cannot
thread it on by hand then something is wrong.
STOP INVESTIGATE.

  • Important Tips
  • If you have a non-threaded faucet, you will
    need to purchase a special adaptor from your
    local hardware store or call us at
    1.866.4.MY.WASH
  • If your diverter pin becomes hard to pull
    and/or push, the diverter mechanism has built up
    with calcium, lime or magnesium deposits. Please
    follow the maintenance steps below.
  • 1. Unscrew diverter from faucet aerator and
    place a few drops of vinegar into diverter
    mechanism pull pin a few times, rinse
    thoroughly and dry. (Any household vinegar will
    work.)
  • 2. Screw diverter back onto faucet
