TURN OFF WATER SUPPLY

. Close the main water supply valve, located near the

well pump or water meter.

. Open all faucets to drain all water from house pipes.

NOTE:

Be sure not to drain water from the water

heater, as damage to the water heater

elements could result.

INSTALL THE BRINE TANK OVERFLOW

ELBOW

Install the brine tank overflow grommet and elbow in

the 13/16" diameter hole in the back of the salt storage

tank sidewall.

NOTE:

The brine tank overflow elbow accepts either

1/2" or 3/8" I.D. hose.

. Move the water softener into the desired location.

Set it on a solid, level surface.

IMPORTANT:

Do not place shims directly under the salt

storage tank to level the softener. The

weight of the tank, when full of water and

salt, may cause the tank to fracture at the

shim.

. Visually check and remove any debris from the water

softener valve inlet and outlet ports.

. Make sure the turbine assembly spins freely in the

"out" port of the valve.

. If not already done, put a light coating of silicone

grease on the single bypass valve o-rings.

. Push the single bypass valve into the softener valve

as far as it will go. Snap the two large holding clips

into place, from the top down as shown in Figures 11

& 12.

IMPORTANT:

Be sure the clips snap firmly into place so

the single bypass valve will not pull out.

MOVE THE WATER SOFTENER INTO PLACE

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

water softener.

Failure to do so can result in back or other

injury.
