OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ADJUSTING THE FLOW
To adjust the flow between direct application on the
chute and direct application to the material, rotate the
valve on the front of the pump box.
The following table shows the flow rates for the
ON/OFF system. These values are approximate
and can vary based on system configuration, age of
components, brine composition, and other factors.
The flow of the system is controlled by a needle valve
inside the pump box. Follow the instructions below to
adjust the flow.
1. Remove the pump box cover.
2. Turn the white plastic handle to the left of the
pump. Clockwise will reduce the flow and
counter-clockwise will increase the flow.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the handle.
Overtightening may damage the valve.
3. With the pump running, turn the valve clockwise
until the flow stops. This is the "zero flow" point.
Do not turn the valve further.
4. Mark the valve handle and body to indicate the
"zero flow" point for future reference.
5. Turn the valve counter-clockwise a number of
complete turns as indicated by the "ON/OFF Flow
Rates" table below.

NOTE: If higher flow rates are required, bypass
the needle valve to increase the flow. Refer to
Bypassing the Needle Valve.
BYPASSING THE NEEDLE VALVE
1. Remove the needle valve and install the 1/2" hose
barb directly into the street elbow.
2. Replace the hose with the 1/2" hose kit. The new
flow rate will be approximately 2.63 gal/min.
MANUALLY CALIBRATING THE FLOW
To obtain a more precise measurement of the flow
rate, follow the steps below.
1. Adjust the liquid system to the desired setting.
2. Disconnect the 1/2" hose connected to the spray
hose and place it in a 5-gallon bucket.
3. Turn on the liquid system and time how long
it takes (in seconds) for the system to fill the
5-gallon bucket.
4. Determine the flow in gal/min by dividing 300 by
the results from Step 3 (in seconds).
Example:
It took 165 seconds to fill the bucket.
300 = 1.82 gal/min
