Reversing the Inlet and Outlet
NOTE: When reversing the water connections on
the filtration system you must keep all parts on the
original line on the filter head.
NOTE: Once the blue retaining ring has been removed
pull the section straight out to remove it.
1. Using a flat screwdriver remove both blue
retaining rings.
2. The photo in Figure 2 shows the filter in the
as received condition with the blue retaining
clips removed. Remove all sections from the
filter head by sliding them straight out. Due to
interference the pressure relief valve will have
to be removed last.
3. The photo in Figure 3 shows the filter with the
inlet and outlet components reversed. Due to
interference the pressure relief valve will need
to be reinstalled first.
NOTE: The pressure gauge will need to be rotated
180 degrees counterclockwise so it can be viewed from
the front of the water filtration system. Tightening it
clockwise will crack the plastic tee. Use Teflon tape
to seal any leaks.
4. Reinstall the blue retaining clips.
5. Move the inlet and outlet stickers to the opposite side of the filter head.
INITIALIZING WATER FILTER
1. Check to be sure that the cartridge is properly installed. Do this by turning the cartridge
counterclockwise when looking at the bottom of the cartridge, and then back clockwise until the
positive stop is felt (Fig. 4).
2. Turn inlet ball valve to the "On" position (handle horizontal) slowly allowing water to fill filter
system (Fig. 1, Item 5).
3. Purge the cartridge so that there is no air remaining by depressing the red button until a steady
stream of water comes out (Fig. 1, Item 6).
4. Purge all air from the water lines by activating equipment for water use.
5. System is now operational. Go back and check connections for possible leaks and reseal where
needed.
