More Microphor information 


Part #27207 FLAPPER GASKET
REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

• TO REPLACE FLAPPER GASKET, YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE FLAPPER IN AN OPEN POSITION. DO NOT FORCE FLAPPER OPEN. FOR ELECTRIC FLUSH TOILETS, FLUSH THE TOILET AND WHEN THE FLAPPER IS OPEN, TURN OFF THE POWER.
FOR AIR-FLUSH TOILETS, TURN OFF THE AIR SUPPLY.

• AT THIS POINT, YOU CAN PUSH FLAPPER OPEN.

• REACH IN AND REMOVE OLD GASKET. DO NOT PUSH ON THE FLAPPER.

• MAKE SURE THE PLASTIC FLAPPER SURFACE IS DRY AND CLEAN OF ANY OLD ADHESIVE.

• REMOVE PAPER BACKING FROM NEW GASKET AND STICK IT ON THE FLAPPER.

• WHILE THE FLAPPER IS OPEN, CLEAN THE INSIDE SURFACE THAT THE FLAPPER CLOSES UP AGAINST.

**YOU MAY NEED TO GIVE THE NEW FLAPPER GASKET A DAY OR TWO TO ADHERE COMPLETELY SO DON'T BE ALARMED IF YOUR BOWL SLOWLY LEAKS WATER FOR THE FIRST 48 HOURS. YOU CAN USE YOUR TOILET DURING THIS TIME. 

**YOU CAN USE SILICONE LUBRICANT ON THE FLAPPER GASKET IF YOU WISH.
