TIME OF DAY
Upon completing the installation, the timer must be set to
the correct time of day. Time of day must also be reset after
any kind of power interruption, such as that caused by an
electrical storm. See Fig. 8.
1. Determine the correct time of day.
2. Grasp the gear (F) and lift straight up (the white time-of-
day dial will lift with it). Rotate the dial until the correct
time of day lines up with the pointer (G). The dial is spring-
loaded and will return to its position when released. Make
sure the teeth mesh.
Note that the silver half of the time-of-day dial designates
the daytime hours, while the black half designates the night-
time hours.
SERVICE POSITION
The timer assembly is in the service position when the tooth-
less notch in the cam gear (J) is over the teeth on the idler
gear (H). The timer will return to this position after each
recharge (Fig. 8).
SALT DOSAGE/RECHARGE FREQUENCY
(Time Clock Models Only)
The salt dosage is the number of pounds of salt the softener
will use with each recharge. The frequency is the number of
recharges per six day period (or seven day period, with
optional 7-day frequency wheel).
To determine the salt dosage and frequency, two things must
be known:
1. Daily water usage as determined by the number of
persons in the household or by actual gallonage measure-
ments.

2. The total hardness of the water as shown on the Culligan
Water Analysis Report.
With these factors known, refer to Salt Dosage/Frequency
Charts, Table 2A/2B. Find the box in the right or left column
with the number of individuals in the household, or the ap-
proximate daily average water usage. Move across until the
box under the correct hardness range is reached. The number
in the shaded portion of the box indicates the amount of salt,
in pounds (kilograms), to be used for each recharge, and the
number in the non-shaded portion indicates the number or
recharges required per six-day period.
NOTICE: The optional 7-day frequency wheel may be used
when recharge is desired only on specific days of the week.
As an example, if four individuals live in the household, and
the water has a total hardness of 18 grains per gallon, the salt
dosage per recharge for the water conditioner will be 5 pounds
(2.5 kg) and the recharge frequency will be 3 (or every 2
days). Monthly salt usage can be estimated, using these
figures, at about 75 pounds (37.5 kg).
SALT DOSAGE SETTING
Set the salt dosage as follows, referring to Fig. 9.
1. Loosen screw (I).
2. Grasp the gear (L) and rotate the salt dosage dial until the
desired dosage is indicated by the point (K).
3. Retighten screw (I).
FREQUENCY (Time Clock Models Only)
Starting with all pins in the up position, set the correct fre-
quency on the frequency wheel by pushing down the appro-
priate number of pins. Refer to Tables 5A and 5B.
