Hello,

I have a Kohler bath tub drain plug (1997-8) in my bathrooms. See picture
below:

http://www.geocities.com/rkannan55/100_0261.JPG

It is closed by rotating it (clockwise or counter-clockwise) and it falls
into place retaining water. I need to remove it for clearing blockage and I
seem to have forgotten how to do it. Rotating or pulling it out does not
seem to help. I do not have the model # but the drain coverplate has the
word 'Gerber' on it.

Any hep is appreciated

I thought those just unscrewed.

There's a set-screw holding it in place. You'll have to get down and
peer at the underside of the disk which seals the drain to see and
access it.

I have a tub with one of those and it always get plugged up.
Apparently no one at Kohler washes their hair.

I ended up just not tightening the screw so it can easily be removed.
