to right or vertical flow downwards. 
To adjust loosen nuts, rotate arms to 
position shown and retighten nuts. 
 

Connect Bypass unit to main orifice 
carrier ensuring that ‘white’ marked 
pressure point connects with ‘white’ 
handled tap and ‘red’ pressure point 
connects with ‘red’ handled tap. 
Tighten connecting nuts, keeping 
indicator vertical. 

Remove red plastic stop and 
retaining rod from top block. 
Remove retaining screw and 
assemble restrictor and bleed 
assembly to indicator top block 
with retaining screw in place.
