This article will explain the process of replacing the wand on a faucet.
Preparation:
Recommended Tools: Pliers, Cloth
|
Removal:
- Gently pull the wand (#1) out from the faucet body (#4) as far as the hose (#3) will allow. To prevent the hose (#1) from accidentally retracting back into the faucet body (#4), tie a cloth around the hose (#3).
- While holding the metal or black non-metallic coupling (#3) at the end of the hose, use your hand to unscrew the spray wand (#1).
- Remove the screen washer (#2) which will be located in inside the hose's (#3) coupling or the threaded end of the spray wand (#1).
|
Installation:
- Remove the protective cap from the spray wand (#1).
- Place the screen washer (#2) into the spray wand (#1). If there was a separate O-ring (#2), place this in on top of the screen washer (#2).
- Hand-tighten the hose (#3) to the spray wand (#1). Then, using the pliers on the hose (#3) coupling, turn 1/8 of a turn. Turn the faucet on and inspect the connection for leaks. If there is a leak, tighten the connection another 1/8 of a turn.
- Remove the towel from the hose (#3) and set the wand (#1) into the receptor (#4).
