Classic Kettle Whistle Assembly & Tuning Plate Instructions
TO REMOVE EXISTING ASSEMBLY:
-
Turn the assembly with your hand, like a doorknob. It may twist off easily.
-
If the assembly does not twist off easily, it needs to be pushed off. With the spout facing away from you, use a wooden kitchen spoon to push against the rolled edge of the stainless steel assembly. Work the spoon around the assembly top to bottom and side to side until it pops off.
TO REPLACE WHISTLE ASSEMBLY:
-
Check inside of assembly spout collar for small black o-ring (E).
-
To place new whistle assembly on spout, align spout indentations with indentations on the assembly spout collar and push into place.
-
To properly secure assembly on spout, turn the kettle upside down, placing the spout opening on the edge of kitchen counter with the flipper hanging over the edge. Using your body weight to slowly push down on the kettle, you should feel assembly snap into place.
-
There should not be a gap between the spout of the kettle and the assembly.

-
Place new spring (B) over the stud screw (A).
-
Place new tuning plate (C) on screw stud (A) with holes facing toward you.
-
Hold tuning plate (C) down with thumbs, replace nut (D) and tighten securely.
