The toilet tank has water in the toilet, arranged in the expulsion of sewage inside the toilet bowl in the push of a handle. The tank seal, installed between the tank and the container, is a small, rubber accessory that helps seal the connection between the tank and the container and prevents leakage. The procedure for installing a toilet tank to a container gasket is the same for the installation of a tank to a container without a gasket.
American Standard 3128.001.020 Toilet Bowl, White
Instructions
1 Align the toilet tank so that the handle is facing the front of the toilet.
2 Lift the tank, holding firmly on each side. Align the cone gasket on the bottom of the tank with the gasket on the bowl on the back of the bowl.
3 Slowly lower the reservoir onto the back of the cup until it is on top of the cup.
4 Insert the tank bolts into the bottom of the tank so that the threads protrude through the bottom and through the container.
5 Screw the nuts on the bottom of the tank bolts. Tighten with a key.
6 Wrap the threads in the tank inlet with plastic plumber's tape. Pull the tape firmly as it wraps around the threads. Make at least two turns around the tank entrance. Cut any extra with scissors.
7 Connect the water supply valve or the hose to the inlet at the bottom of the tank. Tighten with the pliers.
8 Open the water supply on the back of the toilet by turning the water supply valve counterclockwise. See the tank as it fills up and make sure it is working properly. Rinse the tank and check for leaks. Tighten the coupling nuts or if necessary.
Tips and warnings
- Do not over tighten the porcelain nuts, as this can break the tank.
