PLACING UNIT INTO SERVICE: 

1. 

Manually index the softener control into the backwash position. Slowly open bypass valve and allow water to flow into 

the resin tank. When the water flows steadily to drain without the presence of air, index control to service position. 
NOTE: the various regeneration positions may be dialed manually by turning the knob on the front of the control 

clockwise until the indicator shows that the softener is in the desired position. VARIOUS REGENERATION 

POSITIONS ARE: 

 

 

1. IN SERV. 

 3. RINSE 

 

5. BRINE + RINSE      7. SETTLE RINSE

 

 

2. REGEN. 

  4. BACK WASH 

6. RAPID RINSE    

8. BRINE REFILL

2. 

Set water usage program wheel using the following procedure:
Typical Residential Application: To program the unit, set the correct time of day, set the hardness of your water and 

the  softener will automatically monitor your usage, regenerating only when necessary. To set time of day press red 

time set button and turn 24 hour gear until present time of day is opposite “time of day.” Set program wheel by lifting 

the “people” dial and rotating it so that the number of people in the household is aligned with the “grains per gallon” 

water hardness scale. Release the dial and check for firm engagement at setting. (This method will provide reserve 

capacity based on 50 gallons per person.)

3.  Rotate the program wheel 

counter clockwise until it stops 

at regeneration position.

4.  Add 1-1/2 gallons of water to the 

brine tank.

5.  Plug in the electrical cord and 

look in the sight hole in the back 

of the motor to see that it is 

running.

6.  Manually advance the control to 

the beginning of the brine refill 

position and allow the control to 

return to the service  

position automatically.

7.  Fill the brine tank with salt. Maintain salt level above water level. We recommend Solar Salt.
8. 

Make sure bypass valve(s) is in the service position.
