  2. Fit the threaded adapter into the UNI Push wallbox, so that it protrudes 30-55 mm from the wall surface. Cut it if needed.

    Note

    Cover the end of the threaded adapter with thread sealant to avoid leakage.

  3. Fit the overhead shower arm onto the adapter and screw it in fully until it meets the wall.

    Caution

    Ensure the support ring is in place with the rubber side facing the wall. When the overhead shower arm is screwed on, the support ring should be fully recessed and not protrude from the base.

  4. If the arm angle needs adjustment, loosen it about half a turn from the wall, then use the set screws to adjust the angle.

    Note

    The overhead shower will add some weight. Adjust the angle of the arm slightly upwards to compensate for the added weight.

    Make sure the gasket is in place, not to cross thread, and not to overtighten.
