2. Flush the toilet to empty the tank.

3. Use a wrench to remove the nuts that hold the tank to the bowl.

4. Lift the tank off of the bowl and set it aside.

5. Turn the bowl upside down and use a screwdriver to remove the bolts that hold it to the floor.

6. Lift the bowl off of the floor and set it aside.

7. Clean the area where the bowl was sitting with a putty knife or scraper.

8. Place a new wax ring onto the flange on the floor.

9. Set the new bowl onto the wax ring and press it down firmly so that it makes a good seal.

10. Use a screwdriver to hand-tighten the bolts that will hold the bowl to the floor. Do not overtighten these bolts.

11. Place the tank onto the bowl and hand-tighten the nuts that will hold it in place. Again, do not overtighten these nuts.

12. Turn the water back on to the toilet and flush it a few times to check for leaks.

13. If there are any leaks, turn off the water and tighten the bolts or nuts until the leak stops.

14. Once the toilet is installed, you may want to caulk around the base of it to create a water-tight seal.
