6. Install the Waterway

Insert the escutcheon into the rough opening. The double ribs of

the leak shield should be facing up.

If the leak shield makes contact with the elbow: Enlarge the

hole in the back of the leak shield to 1-1/4″ (3.2 cm).

Thread the adapter onto the nipple using the provided 11 mm bit,

11 mm or 7/16″ socket, extension and socket wrench. Use

masking tape to hold the bit in place, as the bit could fall off and

cause damage.

IMPORTANT! The escutcheon should sit loosely at this point. If it is

tight against the wall, use a longer pipe nipple.

Align the groove in the waterway with the double ribs on the

leak shield.

Press the waterway into place over the adapter. Secure the

waterway to the adapter with the screw provided.

Verify that the escutcheon does not turn or shift.

IMPORTANT! If the escutcheon is still loose after this step, use a

shorter pipe nipple.
