Adjuster Tube Setting
The Adjuster Tube is set by cutting and removing tabs on both sides of the tube. Using a
pocket-knife, cut across each tab horizontally, following the channel in the plastic. Break off
each tab individually until the proper setting is reached. The remaining number or letter
imprinted on the tab determines the correct setting.
*Note: With Cabinet models, there is
no adjuster tube setting.
Float Cup Setting
The float cup is set by adjusting its height above the bottom of the brine valve assembly.
By removing the brine valve assembly and resting it on a flat surface, the height of the
float cup can be measured with a ruler. The height is measured from the base of the
brine valve assembly to the top of the float cup. (See drawing at right.) Note that standard
settings are defined by markings on the rod of the brine valve assembly. The settings on
the rod are listed in the tables at the end of this section. Where the predefined settings
are not adequate, the actual float cup height, in inches, is listed, and the setting must be
measured and set according to the measured float cup height.
Installing the Brine Valve
After the adjustments have been made to the adjuster tube and the float cup, the brine
valve assembly must be installed in the brine drum. Locate the brine valve in the brine well
so that the 3/8 " bent tube is along the back of the brine well away from the brine drum wall.
The 3/8 " bent tube snaps into a notch and extends from the brine drum about 1".
Do not drop the brine valve into the drum! Dropping may lower
the float cup, resulting in an improper setting.

9. Add a clean grade of salt at this time. DO NOT USE ROCK SALT.
On iron-bearing water, a salt that contains resin cleaning additives is recommended.
10. Open the inlet valve and allow tanks to fill slowly with water. Water will run at the drain until unit is full and
pressurized.
11. With the unit in service and under pressure, allow the brine drum to fill with water until the brine valve shuts
off.
12. After the unit is fully pressurized, purge air from the lines by opening soft water outlet.
When installation is complete, plumbing lines must be chlorinated for sanitation. Common
household bleach may be used. The amount of bleach will vary on plumbing size, length and
fixtures.
13. VERY IMPORTANT! Where a brine drum overflow could cause damage, a 1/2" I.D. overflow line must be
installed on the overflow fitting on drum and connected to a drain. Make sure overflow line is not higher than
the overflow fitting.
FOLLOW STATE AND LOCAL CODES .
14. Before leaving installation, check plumbing for leaks.
