INSTALLATION continued
B. Using the fitting hole of the drain clamp as a guide, drill
a 1/4-inch hole through one side of the drainpipe.
C. Remove the drain clamp from the drainpipe and enlarge
the hole with a 3/8-inch drill bit. Use a file to remove
rough edges from the drilled hole.

D. Make sure the black rubber gasket is adhered to the
inside of the drain clamp and place the drain clamp
assembly over the drilled hole. Look through the hole
and position the clamp so that the center of the clamp
hole is slightly higher (about 1/16-inch) than the center
of the drilled hole. Tighten the clamp securely.
E. Screw the plastic compression nut onto the drain clamp
until hand-tight.

5. Connecting the Faucet to the Drain
CAUTION This is a gravity drain line. Any loops, kinks
or sharp bends must be eliminated before
proceeding. Failure to create a straight line
to the drain may result in reject water leaking
through the air gap in the faucet onto the
countertop and below the faucet.
A. Align the larger reject (3/8-inch) tubing from the faucet
with the compression nut on the drain clamp. Create as
straight and smooth a path as possible with the tubing.
Do not kink tube. Cut the tubing squarely below the nut
and remove the internal and external burrs.

B. Loosen the compression nut two complete turns. Insert
the tubing into the nut until it stops. Tighten with fingers,
then tighten 1 to 2 turns with a wrench.

6. Installation of Mounting Screws
A. If system is being installed under the kitchen sink,
locate it on the back or right side wall. Make sure to
allow ample space for installation. To change the filter
cartridges, a minimum of 1½ inches of clearance is
required underneath the filter housings. A minimum of 2
inches of clearance from the left side of the unit is also
required.
B. Install mounting screws at least 15 inches from cabinet
floor and 9-inches apart. Leave a 5/16-inch space
between the head of the screw and the wall to slip
bracket onto screws.
NOTE: Each connection fitting on the RO Assembly has a
plug that must be removed before inserting tubing.
Push in on the collar and pull the plug out.
