2. Configurazione e installazione
Before beginning installation, ensure all parts are present and inspect them for any damage. Refer to the technical drawing for component identification and dimensions.
Strumenti necessari:
- Adjustable Wrench or Basin Chiave
- Mastice idraulico o sigillante siliconico
- Teflon Tape (Thread Seal Tape)
- Rag or Towel
Fasi di installazione:
- Prepare the Sink Opening: Clean the sink drain opening thoroughly, removing any old putty or sealant.
- Apply Sealant to Drain Flange: Apply a bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the underside of the drain flange (the top part that sits in the sink).
- Insert Drain Body: Insert the drain body through the sink opening from above, pressing down firmly to create a seal with the putty/sealant.
- Install Gaskets and Nut: From underneath the sink, slide the rubber washer, friction washer, and mounting nut onto the drain body. Hand-tighten the mounting nut.
- Allineare e stringere: Ensure the drain body is properly aligned. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten the mounting nut securely, but do not overtighten. Wipe away any excess putty/sealant.
- Connect Tailpiece (if separate): If the tailpiece is not pre-attached, apply Teflon tape to the threads of the drain body where the tailpiece connects. Screw the tailpiece onto the drain body and hand-tighten, then use a wrench for a snug fit. It is recommended to apply Teflon tape or pipe sealant to the threads where the tailpiece connects to the drain body, even if pre-assembled, to prevent leaks.
- Assemble Pop-Up Mechanism: Insert the lift rod through the faucet body (if applicable) and connect it to the clevis strap. Attach the horizontal rod (pivot rod) to the drain body's opening. Secure the pivot rod with the pivot nut, ensuring the ball is properly seated and sealed with its washer.
- Adjust Stopper: Insert the pop-up stopper into the drain opening. Adjust the clevis strap and lift rod to ensure the stopper opens and closes correctly. The stopper itself may be two pieces; ensure both parts are securely tightened together before installation.
- Test per perdite: Fill the sink with water and then drain it, carefully checking all connections for any leaks. Tighten connections as needed.

- To Open the Drain: Pull up on the lift rod to raise the stopper, allowing water to drain from the sink.
Ensure the lift rod moves freely and the stopper fully seals and opens without obstruction.
