Trying to replace the flush valve. I am unable to undo the thumbscrew because of the stoppers that prevent it from unscrewing.

Like Rob Harrison said, a pair of pliers should do the trick. Its pretty stout plastic.

Try checking out this youtube link regarding replacing the seal. It should help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_ePvpfAkAc

I had the same problem. The bottom just screws off and the gasket is easily replaced. Good Luck.

My thumbscrew was on tight. I used a pair of pliers to get it started unscrewing.

They can be tight from corrosion etc. I used a pair of pliers and mine came loose.

I was finding it impossible to unscrew the old filter, too. Then I tried putting the whole assembly in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes, and that did the trick! I also gently slid the edge of a thin spatula around the circle where the filter meets the housing, if that makes sense. Not sure if that did anything, but the warm bath definitely helped. I was thinking I'd have to trash it and replace the entire unit before I tried the hot water. Hope that helps.

Press and hold the metal wick holder down (springy) and twist. It should unscrew then.

There is an upside down U shaped retainer (sometimes with a tab at the top with a hole in it) at the front of the valve stem that has to come from the top. Once the retainer is removed the valve cartridge can be pulled out. You can use the valve handle screwed back in place to use as a grab handle to pull the cartridge out.

I assume you are referring to the tension lock thumbscrew. It appears to be an 11/64 fine "machine screw" thread although may be metric. Try the specialty hardware drawers at Lowes, Home Depot or a full service hardware store. A suitable replacement should be easy enough to find and it only needs to be "finger tight". Also, in future it doesn't need to be very loose to allow the mount to slide off so shouldn't need to un-thread it completely.

I've tried pliers and even a hammer and it still won't budge. If it is not on tight, then it leaks. But as it is nearly impossible to remove, am tossing out the unit today and have canceled my subscription for the filters.

I had the same problem. The valves close with magnets. You may need to use the program unit to manually open and close it rather than the knobs to get the magnet to close.

My plumber told me it is not possible to remove the low flow regulator without breaking the faucet. This is intentional due to government regulations. Bummer, I know.

i have the exact same issue, i have no idea what to do with the thumbscrew. If anyone knows how to set up the base, please respond.

If you can't unscrew and adjust send it back. Customer service through amazon is very good. Just request that you want to return it and an address label should be provided dto you in good time.

Sounds like you got a defective one. Mine was easy to swap out, no issues. I made sure the center post was properly inserted into the bottom of the valve. I swapped out my old one because it was doing the same thing, letting water out of the waste when in filter mode. It seemed to be related to the lack of spring tension keeping the handle down vs anything else. Good luck.

If you have a toe-touch stopper that's stuck open, just unscrew it and buy a new one, they're like $3. I'm sure your landlord won't notice :)

you have to unscrew the nozzle and flip the connector/seals upside down, re-insert and re-tighten. See the image of the instructions on the product page product images.

Yes I have done the same, just unscrew the cap, opposite to handle. Remove both and reverse.

I contacted Toto Support, and a one-piece Toto toilet takes a TSU99A.X refill valve. They also sent me a PDF showing how to disassemble the valve to clean it out. If there is a way to post the PDF here I will do so.

You might insert a small drill or machine thread tap or an awl, which is tapered, into the nozzle and when it's tight, press the release button on the top front of the waterflosser and extract the broken tip. Also you might try bending a kink in the shank of a paper clip above ii's tip and inserting same into the tip vent hole until it is a snug fit and then press the release and lift out the broken tip.And as always........ have a nice day.The Grumpy Grouper

I was able to fix this problem tightening the stem of the relief valve. Just grab the ring and twist it clockwise.
