    OPERATION NOTES AND WARNINGS: The SkoFlo valve has hard seats and is not designed to provide complete "bubble-tight" shut off. Separate isolation valves should be used for shutting off the flow. Overtightening the handle could cause damage to the stem section. If flow rate does not decrease when turning the handle in, see "Trouble Shooting Improper Valve Performance".
