Step 6 · Connect Shower Head and Handheld Hose
First, take your original fixed shower head (or a new one if you are replacing it) and screw it onto the forward-facing male threads of the diverter. Hand-tighten this connection securely. Next, take the flexible hose. Check that a rubber washer is seated inside the nut at each end. Connect one end of the hose (typically the hex-shaped nut) to the downward-facing male threads on the diverter. Screw it on and hand-tighten. Attach the other end of the hose (typically the cone-shaped nut) to the base of the handheld shower wand and hand-tighten. Place the wand into its holder on the diverter or wall mount.
