Operating Instructions 

Setting the Time of Day 

(Figure 3) 

This is a 24-hour timer and must correspond with the correct time on your wrist watch 
to ensure proper cycling of your conditioner. Disengage the drive gear by pressing and 
holding in the RED BUTTON on the left side of the control. Now turn the large 24-hour 
gear until the actual time of day is at the time of day arrow at the bottom of the panel. 
Release the red button to re-engage the drive gear. The correct time of day on the 24­
hour clock has now been set. 

Time of Regeneration 

The time of regeneration is factory set at 2:00 a.m.

Manual Regeneration Cycle 

(Figure 4) 

Should  you  run  out  of  soft  water  due  to  inadequate  frequency  of  regeneration  or 
inadequate reserve capacity, power failure, lack of salt, or excessive usage because 
of unexpected company, you can initiate a manual regeneration simply by turning the 
manual  regeneration  knob  on  the  front  of  the  control  to  “REGEN”  position.  The 
conditioner will now automatically complete a regeneration cycle and return to service. 
Be  sure  there  is  adequate  salt  and  salt  brine  in  the  brine  tank  for  a  satisfactory 
regeneration. 

Setting the Regeneration Frequency 

(Figure 5) 

The unit’s control features a skipper wheel with twelve numbered tabs and trip fingers. Each represents one day of a twelve day 
schedule. By adjusting the skipper wheel tabs the control can be programmed to regenerate every second, third, fourth, sixth or every 
twelfth day, according to your requirements. 

The control is shipped with all the skipper wheel tabs pushed outwards. You must push the tabs in toward the center of the wheel 
(retracting the trip fingers) for each day that regeneration is 

not 

required. 

Rotate the skipper wheel until number “1” is at the pointer, leave this tab out. Moving clockwise round the skipper wheel, push in tabs 
for those days regeneration is 

not 

required. The tabs left out trigger regeneration, these should be evenly spaced around the wheel.

Important Note - Due to the nature of the interaction between the colour producing organic molecules and the resin bed in your 
Combination unit, we recommend the unit be regenerated a minimum of every 3 days. This is to extend the life of the resin bed 
in your Combination unit.
