1. Turn off all electrical power to the system.
2. Back outlet pressure test screw out one turn
counterclockwise.(See outlet pressure boss on
figure 9)
3. Attach a hose and manometer to the oulet pressure
boss of the valve.
4. Turn on system power and make a call for heat on
the thermostat.
5. Remove regulator cover screw and turn regulator
adjust screw clockwise to increase pressure or
counterclockwise to decrease pressure. (see figure
9 and figure 11) Always adjust regulator to provide
the correct pressure, as mentionned on rating plate
(approx. 3.0 in w.c.).
6. Replace regulator cover screw and tighten
securely.
7. Turn off all electrical power to the system.
8. Remove manometer hose from outlet pressure
boss.
9. Turn outlet pressure test screw in to seal pressure
port (clockwise, 7in-lb minimum)
10. Turn on electrical power to the system.
11. Turn on system power and make a call for heat on
the thermostat.
