Grohe kitchen faucets have a spring that slides over the hose. This spring is connected to a stop which prevents the hose from being pulled too far from the spout. It's a feature that protects the hose from damage and wear, so attaching the spring is an important part of the installation procedure. The entire process only takes a few steps, a few basic tools, and a relatively short time to complete.
Instructions
1. Connect your faucet sprayer hose to the spray head as you normally would during the installation by threading the connector onto the base of the sprayer, and turning it clockwise to tighten it.
2. Push the hose down through the faucet's body cavity and into the sink cabinet area.
3. Push the hose through one of the two circular openings in the stop, and slide the spring over the hose.
4. Insert the end of the hose back through the other circular opening in the stop so the stop holds the spring on the hose. The hose should loop down below the stop. If not, remove the hose and re-insert it with the spring so it does.
5. Connect the coupling to the end of the hose and turn it clockwise to tighten it. Slide the sheath of the coupling back and push the coupling into the base of the faucet, over the connector. The coupling snaps into place when the sheath is released.
