STEP 8

(If Installed)

 

Opening Speed Flow Control Adjustment

: The 

Opening speed needle valve restricts flow out of the cover of the 
main valve. 

If the main valve is opening too slowly turn the adjustment screw 
OUT, counterclockwise, increasing the rate of opening (See Figure 
2B).

If the main valve is opening too quickly, turn the adjustment screw 
IN, clockwise, decreasing the rate of opening (See Figure 2A). 

STEP 5 

Actuate the solenoid to open the main valve. 

STEP 6  

Actuate the solenoid to close the main valve, checking that the 
main valve closes. 

STEP 7 

Closing Speed Needle Valve Adjustment: The closing speed 
needle valve regulates fluid pressure into the main valve cover 
chamber, controlling the valve closing speed. If valve closing is 
too slow, turn the adjustment screw OUT, counterclockwise, 
increasing the rate of closing.

STEP 9

When installing float, set angle similar to Figure 3 by adjusting 
F10-11 modulating float pilot linkage screw shown in Figure 4.
