My Husbancd is installing the faucet , once he hooked the lines back it only has cold wather coming out . If he turns the handle to all the way to the right the pressure goes out.
He canc't find a way to take the handle off to see if there is an adjustment srew.
This is a singgle handle faucet with sprayer. The instructions seemd to be missing from the envelope but the box was sealed when we bought the faucet. We also tried customer service but there is no way to leave a message. Do you know how to adjust the handle or what else may be wrong?

Look under the handle for a set screw that's the usually place.

Sounds like some mineral build up broke loose from the pipe wall and is now clogging the hot water inlet port of the cartridge.
Turn the water off at the stops in the cabinet. After removing the handle you will have to open up the faucet and pull the cartridge out. Check and clean the openings on the cartridge. Now, (and this is important) place a pan over the open faucet and turn the water back on to flush out the supplies.
You should have a full stream of hot water from the supply, If not tell me about it. Good luck, Tom

Thank you Speedball, My husband changed the shutoff valve under the sink, after he turn the water back on a lot of black water came from the faucet then it cleared up and stared getting hot.
Do you know where we could get a copy of the installation or trouble shooting tips?
Have a great weekend

Go back to where you purchased it and inform then the sheets were missing or you could contact the manufacture. Good luck, Tom
