2. Align the metal mounting bracket and mount on a smooth surface using screws. Place the HS115 over the mounting bracket and slide it down tight. If desired, a screw can be placed in one of the feet to hold the unit in place. 3. The cap with barbed fitting and 4. insert act as a check valve for the HeatsavrTM bottle, but also as a safety device so that the For Outdoor Installation: liquid will not spill aggressively 1.
c. d. Slide the suction line tubing onto the barbed fitting of the Heatsavr™ bottle cap, making sure the tubing is fully seated on the barb. Secure the tubing on the barbed fitting with a zip tie (Fig 3b). *If you notice small air bubbles form in the line during pump priming take the line off, cut off ½ inch and repeat step c. Power Supply: 115VAC Power Cord Version This unit comes with a standard power cord. No ground connection is required. Figure 4.
Because of the extremely low power demands of the HS115, it may never be necessary to change this battery. If this battery does go dead, the clock will revert to the default time of 12:00 AM of Day 1 and all programmed events will be erased after a power loss. A replacement battery can be purchased commercially. See the Maintenance section for more information. Setup & Programming During normal operation, the HS115 is in Run Mode.

Priming the Pump 1. Ensure that you are in Run Mode. 2. Press the Prime Button to operate the pump. 3. Hold prime button until the Heatsavr™ liquid has filled the lines all the way to the injection point. 4. If any air bubbles are entering the lines at a fitting, tighten the fitting. Maintenance Periodic Maintenance: Safety glasses and protective clothing should be worn while servicing the HS115. Refer installation and service to qualified personnel only.
How to Replace the Pump Motor To Remove 1. Ensure that power is off. 2. Remove the 4 screws holding the front plate (bezel) in place and remove the front plate. 3. Remove the pump cartridge from the motor assembly, leaving the chemical lines attached. 4. Remove the electrical connections at the back of the motor. 5. Compress the two flex ears on the back of the motor until the motor slides out through the hole in the front plate. To Replace 1.
3. Detach the power wire connection from the main PCB and the power cord. 4. Remove the screws holding the power PCB in place and gently lift it out 5. Align the new power PCB and replace the screws. Be sure to tighten the screws into position. 6. Reattach the power cord to the terminal block and the power wire connection from the main PCB. 7. Remount the front plate (bezel) and re-tighten the screws, being careful not to damage the gasket. How to Replace the Coin Battery 1. Ensure that power is off. 2.
For D-Cell Battery Power Versions 1. Check for 6.0 volts DC or greater coming from the battery holder. If voltage is absent, replace the batteries. If voltage is present, proceed with step 2. 2. Check for 4.5 volts DC or greater at the motor connection wires with the motor disconnected and the pump Prime button activated. If this voltage is present, replace the motor gearbox. If the voltage is absent, replace the main PCB.
Pump Will Not Pull Liquid From the Supply Container: 1. If there is too much vacuum created, the pump will not be able to move the chemical. This is easily recognized when the squeeze tubing collapses. If this happens: a. Check that the squeeze tube or pump cartridge is not jammed. b. Check the chemical uptake lines for kinks. c. Ensure that the chemical uptake line is not forming a seal against the side or bottom of the chemical drum (See Installing Supply Lines in Installation). d.
