Troubleshooting Guide
If sink does not hold water even though Stopper is in the “down” position:
• Follow CABLE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE.
If Stopper does not raise up fully or sink drains too slowly:
• Follow CABLE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE.
If you need to remove the Stopper:
• Follow STOPPER REMOVAL PROCEDURE.
If you would like the ability to remove your Stopper simply by lifting it out of the drain:
• Follow STOPPER INSTALLATION PROCEDURE for “Unlocked” mode.
CABLE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
Disconnect the Cable from the Drain by threading the Cable Connector (1) counter-clockwise. Fig. A.
Look at the area on the Drain Body where the Cable was attached and locate the component labeled as
“Cam” in the illustration. Fig. B.
Use a small screwdriver to rotate the Cam in the clockwise direction as far as it will go. At this point the
Stopper should be in the UP position. Fig. B, C.
Push DOWN on the Lift-Knob to make sure it is fully down. Fig. C.
Re-attach the Cable to the Drain Body Connection (2) by threading the Cable Connector (1) clockwise onto the
Drain Body Connection (2) and hand-tighten. Fig. A.

STOPPER INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
The Stopper can be installed two ways, “Locked” Mode (Stopper cannot be
removed) or “Unlock” Mode (Stopper is removable).

Look at the Plastic Loop at the bottom of the Stopper and notice
that the Loop is on one side of the Stopper. Fig. G.
Fig. G.
To install the stopper in “Locked” mode, insert the Stopper into
the Drain so that the Plastic Loop is facing toward the rear of the
Sink and the American Standard logo is facing front. Rotate
Stopper slightly if necessary so that the Stopper slides all the
way down.Fig. G.
