747 install

How to install the 747UK onto the riser pipe in a Kohler toilet. Correction on the direction of the connector nut: it's counter-clockwise to lock it in place. I guess that's all in how you're looking at it though. PS: Please make sure you shut the water off at the wall before beginning.
So helpful dude thank you
THANK YOU!!!!!!
thanks! got the gunk out.
Problem solved thanks!
This works, but in the very confined space of your tank it is far from as easy as they make it appear.
Very helpful, thanks!
good stuff.
Very helpful. Thank you! I did the same as Tyler Tyler's comment mentioned below and it worked!
Greetings, What if adjusting the water level is not the issue,mbut that after flushing, the black box-like part does not pivot back in place, thus then allowing toilet to refill on the 300a? Assembly in question only installed with new toilet replacement, for about 2 months. Thanks for help! Bill L
"I am in the last stages of replacing all parts in my 2-piece toilet. I am using the "400 Everything" model. In this video, do you mean that the fill valve CAP must stand 3" taller than the top of the overflow pipe? That other part on the fill valve (the black barrel-looking thing)...isn't the part that gets raised? No matter what I do, my water only fills to about 1.5" below the lowest line on the overflow pipe. I cannot turn the fill valve (like you do) because there is a fixed part in the way. The toilet works but I don't want to have problems in the future. Any advice? Should I remove it completely, raise it and then put it back? UGHHH!
Great job on instructions. Worked like a charm
What happened to just adjusting the screw to adjust the level? Am I missing something?
Ta. The check is in the post.
Everything about this video was perfect EXCEPT, as some others have mentioned, you can change the height without taking the top parts off and twisting the shank! My Fluidmaster is one of the new ones that has an extra bowl fill attachment on it, and makes the twisting room almost non existant. I was looking at removing the valve from the toilet to change the height when I saw a comment from others in the comments about sliding the plastic lock UP on the shank. That was a game changer, as all I did was move that plastic lock washer UP on the tube, and that allowed me to just pull up on the top part to extend the height! I then puushed the lockwasher back down in place, tested the water height, and VIOLA, my toilet was fixed!! GREAT VIDEO, though, guys, and VERY easy to follow!
How to be overly aggressive with your toilet filler assembly. Lol
This is a terrible feature that is more annoying than helpful.
Now this is the kind of video I like. The gentleman gets right to the point in one minut saving stress and time! I know when I want to solve a problem, the last thing I want is someone explaining how it works, what it does, where it was made, who invented it, will it fit in a Tesla or cut my grass on a Thursday! In fact I even wrote too much to read right now! 😅 Thanks Toilet Pro!!!
Awesome! This thing has been making a high pitched wet hissing noise and after taking a close look I saw water coming out from around it. Your video came right up and this was the exact problem. There were a few larger grass like bits in there. How the hell that gets into our water pipes! You'd think it would be better sealed and filtered. Oh well, thanks a bunch for the $0.00 repair.
Does the same technique work on a non-fluid master valve assembly?
Try putting your right hand in the tank to do this fella. Bad vid
I didn't replace the clip and now the float box slides up and down and has fallen to the bottom and won't stay up and now I have a shallow water level and it doesn't flush strong enough !! what can I do ?
Will this help raise the water level in the bowl as well or just the tank? The screw itself is not adjusting the level in the bowl
Thank you for saving me a call to the maintenance team :)
Do what with the nipple?
I just replaced a fill valve with a fluidmaster arhrk fill valve. it runs for a few seconds every 30 seconds to fill. I can't figure out which way to adjust this
@thetolietpro, thanks, adjustment made. Simple and to the point.
I really thought I was going to break the cap off, but it finally came loose with enough effort. I did two flushes just in case, and then everything worked perfectly. Thank you!
Thank you!!!
I have a different model. I cut off that nub. That supposed to go up and I put it in upside down and it worked.
Thank you so much for such informative video. My old toilet is 20+ years old and I was super frustrated that all the videos I watched in the last hour were talking about “adjusting the screw” attached to the fill valve. Guess what? There isn’t one on mine. After seriously considering to replace the fill valve, I landed on your video and it only took 10 mins to fix and adjust the fill valve height. Thank you again for saving me and my family’s sanity😊
Great tip, thank you
Did he mention that you should turn off the water to the toilet before taking the cap off, because, if you don't that's how you get a surprise spray to the face!
After spending an hour watching various videos to fix a continuous overflowing issue. I was ready to go out to Home Depot to replace the fill valve. Watching this informational video helped me understand that the fill valve height can be adjusted as well and saved me a trip. Thabnk you!
Perfect! I had fought with a sticking float on this thing before but I couldn't work out how to disassemble it - it's all made of brittle feeling plastic and I was worried about breaking it. I followed your steps and no force was required. One note is, if you have larger hands, you might find it nearly impossible to grasp the pipe because (in my case) this was paired with a very large plastic central column which is entirely in the way. I was _just_ able to get a sufficient grip, but meaty hams might need to borrow someone smaller - or work out how to remove that central unit too. As a last note - when I had the top off I was able to drop the float right to the bottom, and I immediately found damage to the plastic pipe - a small part has been shaved flat except for a small nub right in the middle. I suspect this is what it was catching on when the cistern did not refill. I shaved it down using a Stanley knife blade, pulling away from the sharp edge to avoid it digging into the plastic and making new problems. I finally sprayed the entire thing with silicon spray... hopefully that'll be it solved for a long while now!
Thank you. Perfect video
THANK YOU
Thank you!!!
JUST MOVE THE RING JESUS
What’s the purpose of removing it? Does it cause issues with it?
YES...they can sometimes keep the water closet from filling properly...
Thank you! So helpful!
Didn’t work with latest models with the gray adjustment screw. The cap is now just the outer skin.
Gracias por el video 😊
Apparently, an old video. The ' new improved ' kind has another valve stuck on the side for the fill hose
Thank you for this great tutorial!
Thank you for the useful information. I tried adjusting the long screw on the float cup, but needed less water in the tank. It wasn't until I found this video that I figured out that the shaft needed to be rotated for major adjustment. Very helpful video indeed!
I know this video is 7 years old, but I have the Fluidmaster fill valve too and after I popped the white plastic piece up (that was difficult enough in itself), I couldn't move the gray piece up and down at all no matter how hard I pulled. Tried turning it and twisting but no luck. Ended up putting it back together and the water line was still low. If anyone else has this issue and figured it out, let me know please!
The shaft won’t turn, any suggestions?
After spending an hour, following directions on the Fluidmaster package, doing some improvising and cussing, I finally decided to check UA-cam. Your wonderful video enabled me to complete the job in less than five minutes. I had been on the point of calling a plumber who would have charged me who knows how much. You certainly made my day!
My valve is making a small hissing noise. How do I make it stop?
Thanks! Fixed before my frozen broccoli was finished microwaving. Time to eat
