Упутство за инсталацију

1. Припремите тоалет: Turn off the water supply to the toilet. Flush the toilet to empty the tank and bowl. Disconnect the water supply line. Remove the toilet from its current position and place it aside carefully.
2. Clean the Flange Area: Scrape off any old wax ring material from the existing toilet flange and the base of the toilet. Ensure the floor around the flange is clean and dry.
3. Assess Existing Flange: If the existing flange is severely damaged or broken, the Danco 10672X repair ring will sit over it. If the existing flange is intact but needs reinforcement, the repair ring can still be used.
4. Position the Repair Ring: Place the Danco 10672X Toilet Flange Repair Ring over the drain pipe opening. Ensure the pre-installed stainless steel bolts are aligned with the toilet mounting holes. The self-centering rubber funnel should fit snugly into the drain pipe.
5. Secure the Repair Ring: If your existing flange has screw holes, you may use appropriate screws (not included) to secure the metal repair ring to the subfloor for added stability, though the toilet bolts typically provide sufficient clampинг форце.
6. Install New Wax Ring: Place a new wax ring (with or without a horn, depending on preference) onto the base of the toilet or directly onto the Danco repair ring, centered over the rubber funnel.
7. Поставите тоалет: Carefully lift the toilet and align the holes in its base with the stainless steel bolts extending from the repair ring. Gently lower the toilet straight down onto the wax ring and repair ring. Do not rock the toilet.

10. Тест испирања: Flush the toilet several times to ensure proper function and check for any leaks around the base.

Одржавање

The Danco 10672X Toilet Flange Repair Ring is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation once properly installed. Regular maintenance involves:

• Periodically checking the toilet base for any signs of leaks or wobbling.
• Ensuring the toilet bolts remain securely tightened (without overtightening).
• Cleaning around the toilet base as part of routine bathroom cleaning.

Решавање проблема

Toilet is still wobbly after installation:

Ensure the toilet bolts are tightened evenly. If the floor is uneven, shims may be required under the toilet base (not included). Recheck the installation of the repair ring to ensure it is seated correctly.

Leaks around the base of the toilet:

This indicates a compromised seal. The toilet may need to be removed, and the wax ring and repair ring re-seated. Ensure the wax ring is properly compressed and the toilet is lowered straight down without rocking. Verify the rubber funnel is correctly seated in the drain pipe.

Difficulty aligning toilet bolts:

Ensure the repair ring is correctly oriented and centered over the drain pipe. The pre-installed bolts are designed to align with standard toilet mounting holes.
