D. R.O. Manifold Assembly Installation
Various installation sites will require different
types of mounting fasteners; be sure the fastener
selected will provide a firm, solid mounting. A
support panel may be necessary on thin cabinet
walls or to span between wall studs on particle
board or drywall.
Do not drill through exterior cabinet walls or
leave sharp wood screw points exposed in readily
accessible cabinet interiors.
The close proximity of a dishwasher or a trash
compactor may require special fabrication of a
mounting plate.
1. The mounting bracket will accept either
#10 or #12 (5 mm) mounting screws spaced
on 6" (15 cm) centers. Allow at least 4" (10
cm) of clearance beneath the filter housings
to accommodate filter changes. Mark the
two locations (the bracket can be used as a
template). Install the screws and tighten them
until the heads are about
5
/

" from the wall.
2. Locate the ¼" Red Feed Water Tubing.
Remove the red plug from the fitting labelled
“In” on the manifold and insert the tubing.
Reference the special supplement sheet in
the carton for proper connection of all tubing
and removal of plugs. Run the tubing along its
course to the Feed Water Saddle Valve, trim to
length. (Refer to Fig. 1, page 3.)
Refer to Fig. 3, page 7. To the end of the red
polytube install the Compression Nut, the
Plastic Ferrule, and the Insert. Connect to the
Feed Water Saddle Valve.
