[. . . ] If the water stops running, it is an indication that the Flush Valve Cartridge requires tightening (clockwise). If water still runs on while pushing down on the actuator, the Flush Valve Cartridge requires loosening (counter-clockwise).

If replacement of the Flush Valve Cartridge is necessary, follow the instructions in Step 5. If OK, then check the Flush System by removing the tank Cover and tripping the Actuator. Water should flow freely and wash away any debris in the supply line and Vessel. To test the Air Inducer, place a small amount of water (2 to 3 drops) in the orifice of the Air Inducer cap and flush the toilet. If the Air Inducer is functioning properly the water will be drawn in. If not, it will need to be cleaned and tested again.
