How to use

To install the BENKISER angle valve, ensure the water supply is completely shut off before beginning. Apply appropriate thread sealant, such as PTFE tape, to the male threads to ensure a watertight connection. Screw the valve onto the wall-mounted water outlet and tighten it securely using a suitable wrench, taking care not to overtighten and damage the threads. Once installed, connect the appliance hose to the 3/4 inch outlet and slowly turn on the water supply to check for any leaks.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread sizes of your existing water outlet and appliance hose
• Ensure the installation space allows for a 90-degree connection
• Check that your system pressure does not exceed 10 bar

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the valve for any signs of mineral buildup or leaks. If the valve becomes difficult to turn, operate it periodically to maintain the internal mechanism's functionality.
