WHAT YOU NEED TO GET STARTED

Equipment Required:

Drill
Compression fitting, T-fitting or saddle valve
Adjustable spanner
Phillips and flat blade screwdrivers
Pencil
Tape Measure
Spirit level

Equipment You May Need:

Anchors for plasterboard
Hole saw
Basin nut wrench
Hole punch

If you intend to use the sprayer hole in the sink for the hot water tap, you may need a 3.18mm plug or a 6.35mm cap (not supplied) for the sink spray hose line. See Step 1B. If you need to cut a mounting hole in the stainless steel sink, you may need a hole punch or a 35mm – 38mm hole saw made for cutting stainless steel.

What if you don’t have a sprayer hole or don’t want to use it?Many householders replace the soap dispenser in their sink with a steaming hot water tap. If drilling a hole into a stainless steel sink or worktop, you can cut a mounting hole for the tap with a hole saw for stainless steel, or you can use a hole punch.

Hole size requirements: – HC1100, HC3300 and H3300, a 35mm – 38mm hole is required.– GN1100, hole requirement is 32mm – 38mm.Consult a professional before drilling into a surface other than stainless steel.

Rotate brass seat until the two retaining studs fit into the holes on the tap base and base sits firmly on brass seat.

HC3300/H3300

From under the sink, place the semicircular mounting plate onto the threaded stud.
Place hex nut onto the threaded stud. Ensure tap handle is on preferred side and that tap head is at desired angle.
Insert screwdriver into hole on side of hex tool (creating a “T”), and use tool to tighten nut and secure tap.

3 MOUNTING THE TANK

Select a spot under the sink to mount tank vertically within reach of both plumbing and electrical connections. The tank should be within 400mm or less of tap water lines and within 760mm or less of a standard earth (grounded) outlet.
While holding tank in place on the spot selected for installation, use a pencil to mark locations for 2 hanging screws.

Screws provided are for use in wood studs or cabinets only. Use wall anchors (not supplied) for installation into plasterboard.

Pre-drill 3mm pilot holes at marks.

PROPERTY DAMAGE

Regularly inspect the unit for any signs of leakage. If there are signs of water damage, immediately remove the unit from service.
To avoid water damage from leakage, replace all cut, loose or split tubing.
A drain pan, plumbed to an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications where any leakage could cause property damage.

WARNING Electric Shock Hazard: Using an ungrounded (no earth ground) or improperly connected appliance can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.

This appliance must be earthed (grounded). This steaming hot water tap is equipped with a cord that has a grounding conductor and earth ground pin. The plug must be connected to an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and earthed (grounded) in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Check with a qualified electrician or tradesman if you are in doubt as to whether the steaming hot water tap is properly earthed (grounded).

CAUTION Personal Injury: This tank is a non-pressurized tank. DO NOT modify this system. DO NOT close vent tube or connect other types of taps or valves to the tank. Use only the Incinerator tap supplied. Use only parts provided. Contact an authorized Incinerator Service agent for repairs or replacement components.

WARNING Fire Hazard: To minimize possibility of fire, DO NOT store flammable items such as rags, paper or aerosol cans near the tank.

Periodically inspect the unit for any signs of leakage and immediately remove from service any unit suspected of leaking.

A steaming hot water tap, like any water heater, has a limited life and will eventually fail. To avoid possible property damage and personal injury, this steaming hot water tap should be regularly examined for leakage and/or corrosion and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications where any leakage could cause property damage. To check for corrosion, examine the appearance of the dispensed water in a clear glass once every three (3) months. If there is any discoloration or rusty appearance, unplug and drain unit as described in the Seasonal Storage/Drainage section on page 6 of this manual. If the water discoloration remains after draining and refilling unit, discontinue use and contact an authorized Incinerator service agent.
