HOW TO SET TIME CONTROL
HOW TO SET DAYS ON WHICH FILTER TO BACKWASH:
Rotate the skipper wheel until the number “1” is at the red pointer. Set the days that backwash is to occur by sliding tabs on the skip-
per wheel outward to expose trip fi ngers. Each tab is one day. Finger at red pointer is tonight. Moving clockwise from the red pointer,
extend or retract fi ngers to obtain the desired backwashing schedule:
HOW TO SET THE TIME-OF-DAY:
1) Press and hold the red button in to disengage the drive gear.
2) Turn the large gear until the actual time of day is opposite the time of day pointer. Unit will now be set to backwash at 1:00 a.m.
(See below to adjust this time.)
3) Release the red button to again engage the drive gear.
HOW TO MANUALLY BACKWASH YOUR FILTER AT ANY TIME:
Turn the manual backwash knob to the right until the knob engages the program wheel. This slight movement of the knob will start
the backwash program.
The backwash knob will make one revolution in approximately three hours and stop in the position shown in the drawing. Even though it
takes three hours for the knob to complete one revolution, the backwash cycle of your unit might be only 12 to 20 minutes in duration.
Filtered water may be drawn after rinse water stops fl owing to drain.
How to Adjust Regeneration Time:
1) Disconnect the power source.
2) Locate the three screws behind the manual regeneration knob by pushing the red button in and rotating the 24 hour dial until
each screw appears in the cut out portion of the manual regeneration knob.
3) Loosen each screw slightly to release the pressure on the time plate from the 24 hour gear.
4) Locate the regeneration time pointer on the inside of the 24 hour dial in the cut out.
5) Turn the time plate so the desired regeneration time aligns next to the raised arrow.
6) Push the red button in and rotate the 24 hour dial. Tighten each of the three screws.
7) Push the red button and locate the pointer one more time to ensure the desired regeneration time is correct.
8) Reset the time of day and restore power to the unit.
