instructions and refer to the diagram below.
1) Turn off the water supplies to the mixer tap. Place plug in to waste to prevent loss of small pieces.

if damaged.

FOR VALVE CHANGING PROCEDURE:

represents the HOT valve, whilst the COLD valve is plain (See diagram). Before removing the valve
the mixer, check that the valve supplied is a suitable replacement.
