Toilet

Stuff a rag into the soil pipe to block sewer and prevent hardware from falling in. Check that the hole in the floor is large enough to accommodate the closet flange up to its collar. If the hole needs to be enlarged, trace around the flange's base with a pencil, then cut away the excess flooring with a jigsaw. Don’t cut any joists.

Add washers and nuts to the protruding bolts and tighten until snug. Over-tightening can crack the bowl.

To install the toilet's tank, push two 5/16-by-3-inch mounting bolts through the small holes on the tank's bottom.

Place rubber washers just beneath the bolt heads inside the tank to create a watertight seal. Add nuts and washers to the bolts on the underside of the tank and tighten until snug. Apply the sponge-rubber gasket with small side down if beveled over the discharge tube where the tank sets on the bowl.
