2. Ensure that the cold water at mains supply is
turned off
Where an existing tap and connections are already
installed - after you have turned off the mains cold
water at the mini cistern tap, open the kitchen /
mixer tap and release any water pressure.
Unscrew the braided flex hose from the existing
cold water line mini cistern tap or isolation valve.
Clean the ½” male water connection thread.
3. Undersink Mounting Position
As you will note from the associated diagram, this
Inline Filter System can be installed in either the
horizontal or vertical position.
a) Vertical Installation
Measure 460mm from the base of the cabinet
(or shelf), and mark the mounting location for
the top of the filter head. Make sure that there
is adequate space to avoid crimping the water
line flex hoses. Also make sure your chosen
location offers easy access for future cartridge
changes.
b) Horizontal Position
Measure 460mm horizontally, and mark the
mounting location for the side of the filter
head and end of the filter cartridge. Make
sure that there is adequate space to avoid
sure your chosen location offers easy access for
future cartridge changes and installation of the
stabilizing support bracket. (item 7).
4. Important - If necessary you can easily change
the direction of the flow of water through
the inlet and outlet of the filter system. You
will notice on the head assembly that the inlet
is shown by the word “IN” and the outlet
is shown by the word “OUT”. To change
direction, simply remove the four (4) screws
that hold the mounting bracket to the head
assembly and replace/refit the mounting
bracket in the opposite direction. This allows
flexibility when choosing the desired location
for your filter system.
a) Apply plumbing tape (item 8) to the Pex Hose

direction of the thread to ensur e a tight fit
and avoid leaks (r ecommend 10–12 wraps of
plumbing tape). Scr ew this connection to the
inlet side of the filter head. Y ou will notice on
the head assembly that the inlet is shown by the
word “IN” and the outlet is shown by the wor d
“OUT”.
b) Apply plumbing tape to the Brass Hex Nipple
(item 6) both sides. Wrap tape in dir ection of

(item 1) on the cabinet wall using two of the
mounting screws (item 3) pr ovided. The filter
head will be installed vertically or horizontally
depending upon your desired location.
5. Connect Dual Check Valve – (item 4)
IMPORTANT – It is a legal requirement under
Australian Plumbing Standards that the Dual
Check Valve be installed. If this part is not
installed all warranties are null and void.
Refer to the NCC Volume three, The Plumbing
Code of Australia for the requirements of
backflow prevention.

) Also apply plumbing tape (item 8) to the ½”
male connection on the outlet of the dual check
valve. Wrap tape in direction of the threads to
ensure a tight fit and avoid leaks.
6. Attach Pex Hose (item 5)
Connect the ½” female end of the Pex Hose
(item 5) - to the ½” male end of the Dual Check
valve (item 4) as shown in the diagram.
7. Attach Filtered Water to Cold Water Line of
Kitchen Tap
Take the braided flex hose that is attached to the
kitchen tap. Having applied plumbers tape to the
½” male hex nipple (item 6) – screw the ½” female
end of the braided flex hose onto the hex nipple
(outlet side of filter head).
8. For Horizontal Installations – Install Stabilizing
Bracket (item 7)
Where the system is installed horizontally the unit
requires support at the base of the filter cartridge
with the Stabilizing Bracket (item 7). Locate the
bracket (item 7) in a position that allows three
important functions;
a) Firstly, the bracket needs to be located so that
the filter cartridge can be removed when it is
replaced. Suggested location is at the base of
the filter cartridge.
b) The bracket must be level with the filter
head – so that the filter cartridge sits in a level
horizontal position.
c) Finally, the bracket needs to be screwed into
the cabinet using the two remaining mounting
screws (item 3) and set in a manner whereby the
bottom of the bracket supports the water filled
filter cartridge horizontally.
9. Install Filter Cartridge (item 2)
a) Hold filter head (item 1) firmly with one hand.
b) Align cartridge notches with filter head.
c) Insert filter cartridge (item 2) and push into filter
head assembly (item 1).
d) Turn it to the right (about 1/4 turn) until it stops.
10. Flush the Filter Cartridge
a) Turn water supply back on at either the mains
or at the cold water mini cistern tap.
b) At this stage check for leaks and fix if necessary
c) Turn kitchen tap on and flush the filter
cartridge for at least 2–3 minutes. Collect
water in container and use for garden etc.
NOTE – Flushing the filter cartridge is important to
remove air from the system and any loose carbon
powder. At first the water may appear cloudy due
to compressed trapped air in the filter and hoses.
However the cloudiness will disappear over time
and with use.
NOTES
1) This installation must comply with all
applicable state and local regulations.
2) Do not use with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of an unknown
quality without disinfection before or after
the system.
3) When storing filtered water in a refrigerator
please ensure the container has an air tight
seal / lid.

IMPORTANT This filter is designed to be used with
mains/city water supplies.
Use of this system may increase the bacterial content of
water unless supplementary treatment is provided.
CAUTION Safely isolate the water supply prior to
installing the filter system to avoid injury and property
damage.
IMPORTANT NOTICE The Oliveri Solutions Pty Ltd FS5050-LF
Inline Water Filtration System For Harsh Water Conditions
filters water down to 5 micron. The filter’s very fine mechanical
and chemical filtering process removes chlorine, dirt and many
other potential contaminants. When water is filtered so finely
it can absorb part of everything it comes into contact with.
This can cause taste and odour issues.
Accordingly, you may find that with new kitchen tapware
the braided flex hose supplied with the new kitchen tap
has a rubber internal. This rubber internal may, in some
instances, cause taste and odour issues when the filtered
water first comes into contact with the hose.
Should this occur then flush the filtered water through
the hose over a period of time to remove taste and
odour issues.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be
excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You
are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major
failure and for compensation for any other reasonably
foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have
all the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be
of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to
a major failure.
Refer to oliveri.com.au for warranty details.
