4. Attach the bypass valve to the control valve. Connect the
inlet and outlet of the water softener to the plumbing in
the house. The control valve must not be subjected to
temperatures above 71°C (160°F). To avoid damaging
the control valve when sweat fittings are used, solder the
threaded copper adapters to the copper pipe and then,
using teflon tape, screw the assembly into the bypass
valve.
CAUTION -
do not use pipe thread compound as it may
attack the material in the valve body.

5. Using teflon tape, screw the 1/2” hose barb into the drain
LINE
port in the valve. Attach 1/2” drain hose to the hose barb
and tighten securely with a hose clamp. Run the drain

6. On the twin tank units, pull the 3/8” brine line through the
hole in the side of the brine tank. Connect the brine line
to the fitting on the side of the valve using the nut and

ferrule. Tighten snugly.
7. Make sure the bypass valve is in the service position.
8. Set the time of day and the program wheel according to the instructions on page 4.
9. Remove back cover plate. Make sure that the salt dosage is set as recommended on page 5.
NOTE: The various regeneration positions may be dialed manually by turning the large knob on the front of the control
clockwise, until the indicator shows the desired position.
10. Turn the large knob to the backwash position. Turn on the water supply to the valve and wait until water starts running
at the drain. Allow the water to run at the drain for 2 to 3 minutes.
11. Turn the knob advancing the valve to the brine and rinse position. Allow the water to run at the drain for a further 2 to
3 minutes. Using the same procedure, turn the knob to rapid rinse position and allow to run for a few minutes.
12. Plug the conditioner in. Manually turn the knob to the start of the brine refill position. The correct amount of water will
be automatically metered through the air check tube in the brine well into the brine tank, and the control will
automatically return to the service position. The service position is indicated by the word SERVICE on the front dial.
13. Replace back cover on the control module.
14. Put a minimum of 40 kg of crystal water softener salt in the brine tank. The unit will automatically fill to the correct level
when it regenerates.
Optional Sanitization Procedure:
We recommend that all new water conditioners be disinfected as part of the startup.
Sanitization is achieved by the application of chlorine in the regeneration cycle of the conditioner. A liquid solution of 5.25%
sodium hypochlorite (commonly referred to as household bleach) is recommended as a suitable disinfectant. Use only
unscented products. For every cubic foot of resin in the softener, pour approximately two (2) tablespoons of sodium
hypochlorite into the brine well tube. The brine tank refill in Step 12 should add the correct amount of water to the brine
tank. If not, the water can be added manually now. Press and hold the EXTRA CYCLE button to begin a manual
regeneration. Press the EXTRA CYCLE button again to advance the valve to the Brine/Rinse position. Allow softener to
complete the Brine/Rinse cycle, then let the manual regeneration continue until the brine tank is refilled again with the
correct amount of water.
ALL STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODES GOVERNING INSTALLATION OF THESE DEVICES MUST BE OBSERVED.
