by lifting arm and rotating
top and arm 1/8 turn
counterclockwise, pressing
down slightly on cap.
• While holding a
container over the
uncapped VALVE to
prevent splashing, turn
water supply on and off
a few times. Leave
water supply off.

lugs and rotating 1/8 turn
clockwise. MAKE
CERTAIN TIP IS TURNED
TO THE LOCKED
POSITION. VALVE MAY
NOT TURN ON IF TOP IS
