STEP 1

Pre-set pilots as noted:
Pressure Reducing –

 Adjust OUT, counterclockwise, back-

ing pressure off the spring, preventing possible over-pressur-

ing of the system (See Images 1 and 2).

Opening and Closing Speed –

 Turn the adjustment screws 

on the Closing Speed and Opening Speed Controls, if the 

main valve is so equipped, OUT, counterclockwise, 11/2 to 21/2 

turns from full closed position (See Images 3 and 4).
