MOVE THE WATER SOFTENER INTO PLACE
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
water softener.
Failure to do so can result in back or other
injury.
1. Move the water softener into the desired location.
Set it on a solid, level surface.
IMPORTANT: Do not place shims directly under the salt
storage tank to level the softener. The
weight of the tank, when full of water and
salt, may cause the tank to fracture at the
shim.
2. Visually check and remove any debris from the water
softener valve inlet and outlet ports.
3. Make sure the turbine assembly spins freely in the
"out" port of the valve.
4. If not already done, put a light coating of silicone
grease on the single bypass valve o-rings.
5. Push the single bypass valve into the softener valve
as far as it will go. Snap the two large holding clips
into place, from the top down as shown in Figures 11
& 12.
IMPORTANT: Be sure the clips snap firmly into place so
the single bypass valve will not pull out.
