K1269 Deck Wand Conversion Kit for M76 Wall Mount

K1269 Deck Wand Conversion Kit for M76 Wall Mount

This installation requires a 1-1/4" minimum diameter hole in your desired location on your sink/countertop. You must create this hole if there is none existing. A 3/4" hole is required in the wall behind the faucet. Mark the location of this hole very carefully so that it is behind the cover. Do NOT drill into the water supply. A third hole is required in the wall beneath the sink.

before installation

Remove old hose assembly

  • Remove cover from faucet.
  • Pull plastic tube with spring from detergent tank and copper tube.

Install new hose

  • Drill a 3/4" hole through the wall in the area indicated by the arrow.
  • Screw the hex nut into the faucet body.
  • Attach the plastic tube with spring to the tank and to the copper tube with minimum 3/8" overlap.
  • Make a hole in the wall beneath the sink. Be sure it is in the same wall cavity as the 3/4" hole you already created. Locate the hole as high above the cabinet floor as possible to insure there is ample hose length when in use. This hole must be 3/4" minimum but a larger hole will make it easier to grasp the hose as it is fed down from above.
  • Insert the free end of the hose into the 3/4" upper hole, lower it down into the wall and pull it out through the lower hole.

Install hose guide.

hose guide
