My Shower Handle is Not Sitting in the Original Position After Installing the 90274

1. Remove the cartridge nut (#1) and the upper stem extension (#2a). Note: If you have a two piece cartridge nut, only remove the upper portion which is threaded at the bottom.

2. To replace the upper stem extension (#2a), turn your handle upside down. Notice the  "D" shaped profile in the handle (see image below). This will match the profile at the top of the stem extension (#2a). Place the upper stem extension (#2a) into the handle. Set the handle with the upper stem extension (#2a) onto the faucet. In a standard shower faucet installation, the hot handle will face the 9:00 position and the cold handle will face the 3:00 position. If the handles are not aligned in these positions, remove the handle and adjust the upper stem extension to modify the position. Note: The upper stem extension (#2a) has small teeth on the bottom that line up with the indents on the top of the lower stem extension (#2b) to allow for small positioning adjustments. Place the handle back onto the upper stem extension. If you have corrected the handle orientation, proceed to step 3. If the handle orientation has not been corrected, repeat step 2.

3. Remove the handle.

4. Install the cartridge nut (#1) being careful not to cross thread it. Begin by hand tightening the cartridge nut (#1) then finish using a pair of pliers.

5. Install the handle (see  Step 1-Remove the handle above in reverse order).
