Connecting Solenoid To The Plot Valve; Attaching The Assembled Solenoid And Pilot Valve To Flange Compartment - Hunter G800 Series Owner's Manual

CONNECTING SOLENOID TO THE PILOT VALVE
To ensure that the On-Off-Auto feature functions properly, follow the procedure outlined below.
The TTS rotor's Solenoid has double-lead threads. If this procedure is not followed, the Solenoid
can be attached to the Pilot Valve 180 degrees out of position. While the On-Off-Auto feature will
function if connected out of position, it will function much better if connected correctly.
First, notice that there is a flat section on one side of the Solenoid (FIGURE 137). This "flat" is used
as a reference when connecting the Solenoid to the Pilot Valve. Next, notice there is also a flat
section along the side of the Pilot Valve at a point opposite of the upper fitting. This "flat" is the
second reference when connecting the Solenoid to the Pilot Valve.
With the gray Detent Ring attached to the bottom of the Solenoid, bring the Solenoid and the
Pilot Valve together. Prior to engaging the Solenoid and Pilot Valve threads, align the flats on the
Solenoid and Pilot Valve then press together. Prior to turning Solenoid clockwise, you must first
turn the Solenoid counter-clockwise ⅛ of a turn. This action ensures that the correct first thread
on Solenoid engages the first thread on the Pilot Valve. Now press the Solenoid & Pilot Valve
together while threading the Solenoid clockwise onto the Pilot Valve.
Next, the Solenoid must be placed in the Auto position. To do so, keep turning the Solenoid
clockwise onto the Pilot Valve until it stops (bottoms out). Do not tighten! Then, turn the Solenoid
counter-clockwise until you feel the first Detent Ring click (FIGURE 138). This is the Auto position.
To check for proper alignment, position the connected Solenoid and Pilot Valve assembly in your
hand so you are looking at the top. Next, rotate the Solenoid and Pilot Valve assembly until the
"flat" on the Solenoid is at the 12:00 position (do not unthread Solenoid from Pilot Valve). With the
Solenoid's flat in the 12:00 position, the Pilot valve's fittings should be at the 3:00 position. If the
fittings are not at the 3:00 position, disconnect and repeat the procedure.

ATTACHING THE ASSEMBLED SOLENOID AND PILOT VALVE
TO THE FLANGE COMPARTMENT
With the Solenoid and Pilot Valve correctly
assembled as outlined above, look at the
bottom of the Pilot Valve. Notice there are two
opposing sections of plastic that protrude to the
outside and away from the center (FIGURE 139).
These two "ears" must engage the Pilot Valve's
mounting base in the body flange compartment
during installation (FIGURE 140).
To install the Solenoid and Pilot Valve, first
position yourself to the side of the rotor such

that the rotor's flange compartment is at the
6:00 position (closest to you). Next, lower the
Solenoid and Pilot Valve assembly (FIGURE 141)
into the flange compartment with the Pilot
Valve's fittings pointing to the left side (9:00
position). Engage the bottom of the Pilot Valve
with the Pilot's Valve's mounting base located
at the right and rear of the flange compartment.
Press down to engage Pilot Valve's mounting
ears (FIGURE 142).
