Hi,
Yes... your setup should look like the 46078000 at this point i would just buy that for the 28 bucks...

You should have an o-ring on top of the counter, then the metal washer the plastic washer and then the ring underneath...tighten the ring hand tight and then tighten the screws to pull everything snug...

Why is my grohe alira kitchen faucet loose on a granite counter

Probably a loose fixture nut under the counter behind the sink.
Yeah ya gotta pull out everything and crawl up into the cabinet on your back and see if the nut (right up at the granite, above the hot and cold inlet pipes) is loose. If it is THEN you'll need to tighten it. Wrench, slip-joint pliers or a basin wrench. (probably basin wrench which is a specialized tool made for reaching up into tight places)

How do you remove the spray head from the supply line on a Grohe Ladylux?

Ok not sure what you are asking , but here it goes. If you are wanting to take off the sprayhead simply pull the sprayer out and unscrew. If you want to remove the spray hose from the bottom of the faucet simply grab the red spring loaded connector near the TOP, and pull down spring to release (kind of works like an air hose quick connect). If you want to remove the arch the hose must be removed from the faucet first, then simply jerk up on the arch to remove. When the arch is removed, there is a specialty tool that came with the faucet (which most plumbers keep) to tighten or loosen the faucet. Hope this helps. Luckydog

We have a Grohe faucet similar to the Concetto. It single hole mount. Recently, it became loose and no matter how much I've tried to tighten it with a rod/nut/washer underneath, it will not tighten. ...

looks like you'll have to remove it and examine it. Brass is a soft metal, I hope you've not stripped out the threads, Grohe is an expensive faucet. i fall else fails and the hreads are stripped out, I might try a tough adhesive caulk like a 3M 5200 marine grade. Apply liberally from the bottom. let it set firmly. Perhaps tape a piece of cardboard over the hole in the countertop from the bottom. this would keep the caulking from falling out before it sets. unconventional, but something to try before buying another $200 faucet. what have you to loose?

Loose Grohe kitchen faucet

there are mounting plates underneath the counter which fasten the faucet to the counter.This unit will need a small allen wrench if memory serves me correctly...keep in mind that all moen faucets are lifetime guranteed and alot of folks do not take advantage of this amazing warranty which makes these the most desirable faucet on the market.however the need to tighten this faucet prob isnt a warranty replacement procedure but can be determined once mounting items and faucet is inspected...good luck

LOOSE FIXTURE

Unfortunately you cannot tighten the faucet from the top. you will need a 1/2" extended socket (the type for car repairs) and you will need to tighten it from underneath using an extension bar.

Pegasus Push Button Vessel Sink Drain with overflow

Put plumbers putty around the flange that will be in contact with the sink. When you put it into the hole, try to line up the overflow as good as possible. The nut that goes onto the bottom (tailpiece) has a rubber gasket that will go between the nut & the sink. Adding some plumbers putty here won't hurt. After all is secure, just remove the putty that squeezed out from tightening.
