Installing the Moen 7600 Series Single Handle Faucet, INS107C |
|
|
To complete the project, you should first gather
the tools and all the parts you will need. Next, the basic
steps are to prepare the mounting area, mount the faucet, connect the
supply lines, connect the optional spray hose, and finally test and flush
the faucet.
You
should have the following tools available to you before you start: a flashlight,
an adjustable wrench, pliers, safety glasses, a basin wrench, penetrating
oil, flexible supply lines, and channel lock pliers.

|
| 1. |
Use a non-abrasive
cleaning agent to thoroughly clean the area under the removed
faucet and allow the area to dry completely. |
 |
 |
| 2. |
If you are installing
the faucet on a tile countertop, remove rubber gasket from underneath
support plate (part 20) or deck ring (part 18) – depending on
which type of faucet you have. Apply a bead of putty the place
of the rubber gasket by rolling the putty into the diameter
of a pencil. When applied in the groove, the putty should protrude
a minimum of 1/16”. |
 |
| 3. |
To install the optional
sprayer hose, slide the foam gasket onto the hose guide shank
(part 28) and tuck the outer edge of the gasket under the hose
guide. Install hose guide through the furthest left or right
hole on the sink. |
 |
| 4. |
From under the sink,
thread extended locknut (part 29) on shank of hose guide and
tighten by hand. Feed the spray hose down through the hose guide
but don’t connect it yet to the faucet. |
 |
| 5. |
When installing a Deck
Plate model faucet, do not unbend supply tubes until after the
tubes have been inserted through the sink hole. Install the
faucet through the deck holes with the threaded shank to the
back. Center the faucet on the sink with support plate (part
20) oriented in the sink holes. Turn the spout sideways to keep
the faucet from leaning forward. |
 |
| 6. |
For
Deck Ring models, do not unbend the supply tubes until after
the tubes have been inserted through the sink hole. Place the
deck ring (part 18) over the supply tubes (part 23) and threaded
shank (part 22) against bottom of faucet body. Install faucet
through deck hole with threaded shank to the back. Turn the
spout sideways to keep the faucet from leaning forward. |
 |
| 7. |
For
deck holes up to 1 1/8” inch deep, install the mounting bracket
open side up. Deck holes greater than 1 1/8” deep – install
the open side down. For spray models, a groove on the threaded
shanks indicates the minimum amount of exposed thread. For models
without a spray, a minimum of ½” of threaded shank must be exposed.
Position mounting bracket onto threaded shank and around supply
tubes. Do not kink the tubing. Install mounting nut (part 26)
and tighten by hand. |
 |
| 8. |
Make sure that the
faucet is positioned evenly and use the mounting tool (part
32) to make final tightening adjustments. |
 |
| 9. |
Carefully straighten
each supply tube using two-hands. If using flexible supply lines
with compression fittings, thread supply line nuts with fingers.
Then while holding one nut with a wrench, tighten nut with another
wrench. Rotating the nuts one-half turn and take care not to
over-tighten. Make connections to both hot and cold supply lines.
The hot supply line is always on the left when threaded shank
is in the rear. |
 |
| 10. |
If you have the optional
sprayer and a Deck Plate model, feed the spray hose through
the deck plate hole, and then connect spray hose swivel nut
(part 31) to the threaded shank. Tighten swivel nut by hand
plus ¼ turn with pliers being careful not to twist the hose.
Be careful to not over-tighten. |
 |
| 11. |
Connect spray hose
swivel nut (part 31) to the threaded shank. Tighten swivel nut
by hand, plus 1/4 turn with pliers being careful not to twist
the hose. Be careful to not over-tighten the nut. |
 |
| 12. |
To avoid damage to
your new faucet, be sure to follow these flushing instructions.
Remove the aerator and turn the faucet to the cold position.
Turn on the cold supply for 15 seconds. Without shutting the
faucet off, turn the faucet to the hot position and turn the
hot supply on for 15 seconds. Next, turn the faucet to the mid
position and turn on the spray for 15 seconds. Shut off the
faucet, re-install the aerator and check the system for leaks.
Your new Moen faucet is now ready for normal use. |
