STEP 8: 

 Install overflow tubing from overflow elbow on brine tank to floor drain.  Tubing must be lower 
than  overflow  elbow  at  all  times  to  brine  tank  overflow  in  case  of  malfunction.    DO  NOT 
CONNECT  DRAIN  LINE  FROM  SOFTENER  CONTROL  VALVE  TO  BRINE  TANK 
OVERFLOW. 

STEP 9:

 

Place 

control  valve  is  in  the  “Service”  position  (time  of  day  arrow  pointing  to  the  Service 

Position Indicator {see fig. 6, page 10}).  Place bypass valve 

in the “Bypass” position (refer to 

Figures 4 below).  Open main supply valve or turn on power to pump on private well systems. 

 

 

STEP 10:

 

Rotate the Manual Regeneration Knob (see Fig. 5, page 7 & Fig. 6, page 10) to the Backwash 
position. 

STEP 11:

 

Refer to Figure 4 bypass valve operation.  Rotate bypass lever of stainless steel bypass ¼ of 
the way to Service allowing unit to fill slowly.  Filling the mineral tank in this position will force 
any trapped air to the drain.  When all air has been purged from the system and only water is 
running to the drain the tank is pressurized.  F

ully open bypass valve to the “Service” position 

and advance the control valve to the SERVICE position. 

STEP 12: 

Check for leaks and correct as necessary.
