5. Lift the toilet out and place into a tray to collect remaining water.

Installing the New Dual Flush Toilet

1. Put a standard wax ring down (figure D).

2. Press the Caroma Universal Off Set connector onto the wax to get it flush to the ground (figure E).

3. Tighten the bolts to firmly connect the Caroma Universal Off Set connector to the toilet flange.

4. Clean up any leftover wax.

5. Take the fully skirted bowl and set it on top of the connector. It should set right in place (figure F).

6. Place the foam seal firmly on the base of the tank to ensure a water tight seal between your tank and bowl.

7. Set the tank into position and connect on both sides.

8. Reconnect the water line.

9. The final step for installing the dual flush toilet is to place the top onto the tank, lining up the two buttons.
