Manually index the softener control into the service position and let water flow into the resin tank. When the water flow stops, open a softened water tap until all air is released from the lines, then close the tap.
Note: the various regeneration positions may be dialed manually by turning the knob on the front of the control until the indicator shows that the softener is in the desired position.
2.
Manually index the control to the back-wash position and allow water to flow at the drain for 3 or 4 minutes.
3.
Remove back cover plate.
4.
Make sure that the salt dosage is set as recommended by the manufacturer. Manually index the control to the brine fill position and allow the brine tank to fill to the top of the air check.
5.
Manually index the control to the brine draw position and allow the control to draw water from the brine tank until it stops.
6.
Plug in the electrical cord and look in the sight hole in the back of the motor to see that it is running. Set the days that regeneration is to occur by sliding tabs on skipper wheel outward to expose trip fingers. Each tab is one day. Finger at red pointer is tonight.
Moving clockwise from red pointer, extend or retract fingers to obtain the desired regeneration schedule.
7.
Manually advance the control to the beginning of the brine fill position; and allow the control to return to the service position automatically.

TO REMOVE TIME BRINE VALVE, INJECTORS, AND
SCREEN
1.
Unplug electrical cord from outlet.
2.
Turn off water supply to conditioner: a.
If the conditioner installation has a “three valve” by-pass system, first open the valve in the by pass line, then close the valves at the conditioner inlet and outlet.
b.
If the conditioner has an integral by-pass valve, put it in the by-pass position.
c.
If there is only a shut-off valve near the conditioner inlet, close it.
3.
Relieve water pressure in the conditioner by putting the control in the backwash position momentarily. Return the control to the service position.
4.
Disconnect brine tube and drain line connections at the injector body.
5.
Remove the two injector body mounting screws. The injector and brine module can now be removed from the control valve. Remove and discard valve body Orings
6a. To Replace Brine Valve

Pull brine valve from injector body, also remove & discard O-ring at bottom of brine valve hole.
2.
Apply silicone lubricant to new O-ring and reinstall at bottom of brine valve hole.
3.
Apply silicone lubricant to O- ring on new valve assembly and press into brine valve hole, shoulder on bushing should be flush with injector body.
6b. To replace injectors and screen.
