Tools and Materials
Before You Begin
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. This product is a diverter
valve only and should never be used as a shut-off valve. Doing
so would allow cross flow between the hot and cold water
supplies and create a serious scalding hazard.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Shut off the main water supply.
Provide an access panel for all installations.
This diverter can be installed to decks with a maximum thickness
of 1-1/4″(3.2 cm).
Carefully inspect waste and supply tubing for any sign of
damage. Replace if needed.
NOTE: Plumbing codes may require a vacuum breaker be installed
in-line to handshowers. Please consult with local plumbing codes. If
a vacuum breaker is required, ensure that it is not installed between
the handshower high pressure and interlock hoses.
Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of
products without notice, as specified in the Price Book.

Diverter Configuration
The small port is for the supplied handshower hose.
The port directly opposite of the handshower port is for an
optional bath spout. Default flow is through this port. If not
utilized, this port will need to be capped.
The remaining two ports are for the hot and cold water. These
connections are interchangeable.

2. Prepare the Site
Provide an access panel for all installations.
Allow for access to the connection between the shower
high-pressure hose and the shower interlock hose.
For easiest installation, do not install the bath unit until all
soldering (except supplies) is complete. Then install the bath and
connect the supplies.
If used, install the bath spout shank at this time according to the
spout installation instructions. If possible, do not install the
finished trim until all other installations and construction are
completed.
For spouts with a supply tee: Solder in an adapter and a 1/2″
copper tube. Cap to close the extra port.
Install the valve bodies according to the valve body installation
instructions.
Loosely secure the valve bodies.
Follow the handle installation instructions to temporarily
assemble the handles in order to adjust the valves to the proper
height before connecting the lines to the diverter or supply.
Use a wrench to loosen the cartridge assembly from the diverter
body. Continue to unthread the assembly to remove.
Set the assembly aside. Protect the seals and O-rings from
becoming dirty, damaged, or misaligned.

4. Complete the Diverter Installation
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Verify that the diverter
body is secure before removing the cartridge. If not secured, the
process of removing the cartridge may damage the pipe and
connections.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Excessive heat will damage
the internal plastic components. Do not apply excessive heat
while soldering. Direct the torch flame away from the brass
body. Only apply direct heat to the connectors and extensions.
IMPORTANT! If there is limited access to the solder connections, or
if any other risk of excessive heat being applied to the brass body
exists, remove the cartridge prior to soldering. If you remove the
cartridge, protect the seals and O-rings from becoming dirty,
damaged, or misaligned.
If not already removed, remove the diverter cartridge assembly.
Dry fit all piping and connectors.
Solder piping for the optional spout or wall shower.
Connect the hot and cold lines from the valves to the diverter.
While supporting from below, carefully install and wrench tighten
the cartridge assembly into the diverter body.
Install the diverter handle. Use a hex wrench to tighten the
setscrew.
