Use and Care Manual

To remove the short inlet adapter use needle nose pliers. The adapter unscrews counter clock wise

(Fig. E). There is a gasket inside the inlet valve port (Fig F). Please do not remove the black gasket when

removing the short adapter and replacing it with the longer adapter (Fig. G). Tighten the longer adapter

clock wise with needle nose pliers (Fig. H).

The bypass assembly is typically used to isolate

the control valve from the plumbing system’s water

pressure in order to perform control valve repairs

or maintenance. The ¾” full flow bypass valve

incorporates a service flow and bypass position.

The bypass assembly uses a piston type plunger

design to move from bypass to service flow. The

bypass position is used to turn off water flow to the

valve. The in service flow position delivers water

to the valve and tank to be softened and then

delivers soft water through the water plumbing in

the building.

Be sure to install the bypass assembly onto the main

control valve, before beginning plumbing or make

provisions in the plumbing system for a bypass.

The view of the bypass assembly (FIG. I) lists all the

components.
