6. Connect the oil filter (supplied) to the oil tank (Figure 2).
Important:
The oil filter is essential as it prevents blockage in the needle valve.

means of flexible ¼-inch copper tubing.
Setting the Drip Rate
1. Set the dip switch settings for the Normal (pump on) mode using the drip rate setting toggle
switches. (see Setting Normal (pump on) Mode on page 16).
Note:
There are 50 drops per 1 cc, and there are 3785.4 cc per gallon.
2. Replace both covers and tighten the eight cover screws so that the unit is watertight.
