COUNTERCLOCKWISE only until arrow or knob points to desired position. 
Rotation is made much easier if you grasp the camshaft with your free hand 
and turn it at the same time. Then permit knob to spring back out.
2. Insert screwdriver into slot in indicator knob (Figure 11). Press in and rotate 
knob COUNTERCLOCKWISE until arrow points directly to the word 
BACKWASH.
3. Fill resin tank with water.
a. With water supply off, place the bypass valve(s) into the “NOT IN BYPASS” 
position.
b. Open water supply valve very slowly to approximately the 1/4 open 
position.
IMPORTANT: 
If opened too rapidly or too far, resin may be lost. In this position, 
you should hear air escaping slowly from the drain line.
c. When all of the air has been purged from the tank (water begins to flow 
steadily from the drain), open the water supply valve all the way.
d. Allow water to run to drain until clear.
e. Turn off water supply and let the unit stand for about five minutes. This will 
allow all trapped air to escape from the tank.
4. Add water to brine tank (initial fill).
With a bucket or hose, add approximately 4 gallons (15 liters) of water to brine 
tank. If the tank has a salt platform above the bottom of the tank, add water 
until the level is approximately 1 inch (25 mm) above the platform.
