INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
In order for your new TOTO® toilet to fit correctly, the distance between the
finished wall to the center of the closet flange must be at least 10 to 12 inches. This
measurement is called the Rough-In.

1) Clean any debris out of the closet flange and then
install new mounting bolts (not supplied) into the
slots of the closet flange (see Ill. 1). The head of the
bolt should be inserted into the slot with its threads
facing upward.
2) Carefully turn the toilet upside down onto some
padding. Firmly press a new bowl wax ring (not
supplied) onto the circular recess around the toilet
bowl’s horn (see Ill. 2). Turn the toilet upright and
gently lower into position over the closet flange.
With toilet properly aligned, press firmly on both
sides of toilet rim to set the bowl wax ring.
C AUTION: Do not move the bowl after the bowl
wax ring is set. Thread nuts and tighten evenly
until bowl is snug to closet flange. Install the bolt
caps.
C AUTION: Do not over-tighten the nuts as damage
to the china bowl may result.

IMPORTANT!
Due to the powerful performance of our Cyclone, G-Max, E-Max and Power Gravity
flushing systems, they are not specified for back-to-back installations. The only
means of installing these toilets in a back-to-back situation is when the toilet drain
connections incorporate a WYE fitting. Please contact your builder or contractor prior
to this installation.

4) Place the tank upside down onto some
padding. Inspect the smaller fill valve nut
and larger flush valve nut for a secure con-
nection.
Try to tighten the nuts with your hands see
Ill. 3). If loose, tighten the nut hand tight
and an additional 1/4 turn for the smaller fill
valve nut and an additional 1/2 turn for the
larger flush valve nut.
Place the tank-to-bowl gasket onto the flush
valve nut. While pressing down, spread the
gasket over the nut until the gasket touches
the bottom of the tank. A slight gap be-
tween the tank bottom and the gasket is
allowable.
5) Lay the tank down on its back. Place a rub-
ber washer onto a brass bolt. Reach inside
the tank and position the bolt through one
of the holes in the bottom of the tank (see
Ill. 4).
On the outside of the tank, place a metal
washer and nut onto the bolt. Hold the bolt
centered in the hole and tighten the nut
finger tight. Turn the nut an additional 1/2
turn with a wrench. Repeat this process for
the remaining hole in the tank.
6) Pick up the tank and carefully guide the
brass bolts to align the tank with the bowl.
Attach a metal washer and nut to each bolt.
Tighten the nuts finger tight and inspect
that the tank is level (see Ill. 5). Once level,
tighten the bolts equally until the tank
makes THREE POINTS OF CONTACT with
the bowl.

N OTE: The toilet bowl has three points of contact, which will actually contact the bottom of the
toilet tank when properly installed. The location of these points can be seen on the bowl at the
tank receiving area. The three points are front left (1), front right (2), and back center (3). Recall
these three points during the Toilet Tank installation.
