Repair instructions
Deposits of scale in the diaphragm may prevent the valve from closing or
opening correctly. Therefore, the valve should be cleaned at specific inter-
vals dictated by operating conditions and water quality.
The valve fails to open or close correctly
• Check that the motor has the correct supply voltage.
• Check that the plunger rod can move freely.
• Check that the diaphragm is not clogged by deposits of scale.

Tensioning the return springs
With the valve housing removed:
- Turn the return spring so that the spring's ''tongue'' is resting against
the stop screw.
- Place the valve housing over the return spring so that the pin on the
spring fits into the inlet of the piston rod. (NOTE: The piston rod shall
be fitted so that its input is longitudinal with the housing.)
- Then turn the housing one turn in a clockwise direction. (In this way,
the spring's pin will be threaded into the piston rod. The spring is then
tensioned approximately 1/4 turn, as a result of the rise in the piston
rod.)
