Sometimes the tip-toe washer does not engage correctly with the stopper, leading to water leakage. This can often be resolved by adjusting the internal screw.

Steps to Resolve Leaking:

• Remove Cap/Cartridge: Carefully remove the cap from the drain or the cartridge from the drain body. This may involve unscrewing or gently prying.
• Fully Open Drain: Ensure the drain mechanism is in the fully open position.
• Remove Cover Cap: Detach the cover cap to expose the internal screw.
• Tighten Screw: Using a screwdriver, tighten the internal screw. This adjustment helps the washer engage properly.
• Reinstale: Reinstall the cover, cartridge, and cap. Test the drain for proper sealing.
