    I've just installed a Grohe Rapid SL frame and cistern. The cistern water level sits too high. The instruction diagrams are awful. What exactly do I twist turn or pull to lower the water level?

They seem, like most things, to vary wildly in price. Is there anything I should specifically look for in the specs or any particular make who are...
