Operating Instructions
Sounds
You will notice new sounds as your filter operates such as the hum of the timer or click of the actuator arm. During
regeneration, it will not be uncommon to hear the sounds of water running to the drain.
Manual Bypass (Figure 4)
In case of an emergency you can isolate your water filter from the
water supply using the bypass valve located at the back of the
control.
In normal operation the bypass is open with the ON/OFF knobs in
line with the INLET and OUTLET pipes. To isolate the filter, simply
rotate the knobs clockwise (as indicated by the word BYPASS and
arrow) until they lock.
You can use your water related fixtures and appliances as the water
supply is bypassing the filter. However, the water you use will be
untreated.
To resume filtered water service, open the bypass valve by rotating
the knobs counter-clockwise.
Maintenance Instructions
Maintenance of your new water filter requires very little time or effort but it is essential. Regular maintenance will ensure
many years of efficient and trouble free operation.
PLEASE NOTE: THE FOLLOWING MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES MUST BE PERFORMED
REGULARLY FOR YOUR GUARANTEE TO BE VALID.
Cleaning The Injector Assembly (Figure 5)
The presence of iron and sediment will restrict and clog
the injector assembly which is located on the right hand
side of the control valve. This assembly is easy to clean.
Shut off the water supply to your unit and reduce the
pressure by turning the large knob to backwash. Using a
screwdriver, remove the two screws holding the injector
assembly to the control valve body. Carefully remove the
assembly and disassemble.
The injector nozzle is removed for the injector body by
carefully turning it out with a large screwdriver. Carefully
flush all parts with water. Use a mild acid such as vinegar
or Iron Out to clear the small holes in the nozzle and
throat. Reassemble using the reverse procedure.
Care Of Your Filter
Your filter tank and chemical feeder container can be cleaned with a mild soap solution. Never subject the unit to
freezing. Do not strike or drop the chemical feeder container. If the container is found to be leaking, shut off the water
supply to your filter and replace the container at once.
