CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
:
REFER TO FIGURE 1 FOR IDENTIFICATION OF EACH PART.
LOOSEN SET SCREW AND REMOVE PRESSURE INDICATOR SLEEVE.
TURN ADJUSTING KNOB CLOCKWISE UNTIL THERE IS A 1/8” GAP BETWEEN ADJUSTING KNOB AND INDICATOR AS SHOWN.
ACTUATE VALVE HANDLE TO THE PULL-UP CYCLE AND OBSERVE PRESSURE GAUGE. PRESSURE SHOULD STOP INCREASING
AT 70 PSI.
PULL VALVE HANDLE BACK TO RETURN CYCLE, TURN ADJUSTING KNOB CLOCKWISE OR COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO FINE TUNE
PRESSURE GAUGE TO 70 PSI. (BE SURE TO PULL VALVE HANDLE BACK TO ITS RETURN CYCLE POSITION BEFORE EACH
ADJUSTMENT IS MADE).
SLIDE PRESSURE INDICATOR SLEEVE BACK OVER ADJUSTING KNOB AND INDICATOR. ALIGN TAPERED FRONT EDGE OF
PRESSURE INDICATOR SLEEVE WITHIN THE NUMBER SEVEN (7) GROOVE AND LOCK IT IN PLACE WITH SET SCREW.
ONCE INDICATOR SLEEVE HAS BEEN LOCKED IN PLACE TO ADJUSTING KNOB, BOTH PARTS CAN BE TURNED
COUNTERCLOCKWISE FOR LOWER PRESSURE SETTINGS OR CLOCKWISE TO INCREASE PRESSURE SETTING. WHEN
INCREASING PRESSURE, TURN KNOB PAST REQUIRED PRESSURE SETTING ONE (1) OR TWO (2) TURNS THEN BACK TO
REQUIRED PRESSURE SETTING.
80 PSI SETTING CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY TURNING INDICATOR SLEEVE CLOCKWISE ALL THE WAY UNTIL IT COMES TO A
STOP, THEN BACK OFF TWO COMPLETE TURNS.

CALIBRATION SET-UP:
NUMBERS SHOWN ON INDICATOR ARE IN 10 PSI
GRADUATIONS.
EXAMPLE: 7 = 70 PSI 6 = 60 PSI
PRESSURE INDICATOR CALIBRATION SHOULD ALWAYS
BE DONE AT 70 PSI.
USE MIDWAY SPACE BETWEEN EACH GRADUATION
LINE FOR 5 PSI GRADUATION.
WHEN CALIBRATING OR ADJUSTING PRESSURE INDICATOR,
VALVE HANDLE MUST ALWAYS BE IN RETURN POSITION
(PISTON ROD FULLY EXTENDED TO THE FRONT).
SPEED CONTROL SELECTOR MUST BE SET ON “FAST” PULL-
UP PRIOR TO CALIBRATION (AS SHOWN).
