Zenith Hydro Tap Installation and Operating Instructions - 81467 - February 2005 Page 5 of 20
In addition to normal tools, the following will be required:
• 38mm diameter sheet metal hole punch for sink tops. (not supplied)
• 38mm diameter hole saw for timber bench tops. (not supplied)
• Nut runner tube spanner (supplied) for fixing tap assembly.
When installing a Font unit:
• 108mm diameter sheet metal or hole saw to suit surface being cut.
Special tools required
Step A - Installing the tap (all models)
1. Make sure that the tap location will allow the nozzle to drain into the sink.
2. Install the 38mm hole in the bench / sink top.
3. Remove the “Spider Clamp” and S/S washer by undoing the 6mm nut
located on the “All Thread” at the base of the Tap Head Assembly.
A tube spanner is supplied in your installation kit for this job.
4. Ensure the black plastic spacer remains in place as this is the moisture
seal against the bench / sink top. A light smearing of silicon sealant on the
underside of the spacer will ensure a watertight fit.
5. Pass all three hoses through the 38mm hole and carefully locate the Head
Assembly and black spacer on the bench / sink area.
6. From the underside of the bench / sink area re-locate the S/S washer and
“Spider Clamp” by feeding each of the three tubes and electrical cable
evenly in between the legs of the “Spider Clamp”. Slide it up to meet the
“All Thread”, and pass the “All Thread” through the center of the “Spider
Clamp”.
7. Hold the “All Thread” steady and re-fit the 6mm nut to the “All Thread”
using the tube spanner supplied in the kit. Check the Tap Head position
before securing it tightly against the bench / sink top.
NOTE 1: The tap assembly must not be positioned more than 1m above
the HydroTap unit. Failure to do this may result in poor water delivery.
NOTE 2: Under no circumstances should the Tap be twisted after the
installation is complete.

Spider Clamp and the underside
of the sink top. Position it here.
• This switch must provide all-pole disconnection and a contact separation
of at least 3mm installed in accordance with wiring rules.
• Cold water supply with a minimum working pressure of 175 kPa and a
maximum working pressure of 700 kPa connected via an isolation valve. If
pressure is likely to exceed 700 kPa, install a 500 kPa Pressure Limiting
Valve.
• The fitting of an air flow vent cut into the top half of the cupboard door
concealing the HydroTap requiring a cut size of approximately 100mm
circular, to provide adequate warm air displacement. In installations where
high volume draw-off will occur, the fitting of the accessory exhaust fan is
essential.
Important: Do not proceed with the installation if these requirements are
not met.
