Equipment Needed
17mm socket
14mm wrench
18mm wrench
Strap wrench
O-ring
Grease
Single-piece water filter with ¼” NPT thread
Blue tape
Installations Steps
Step 1
Starting clockwise from the filter, mark every other bolt with a dry erase marker
Slightly loosen each of those bolts with a 17mm socket
Step 2
Place the Lumo wrench in groove next to loosened bolt
Slide bracket underneath loosened bolt, use tool to align the bracket properly
Hold in place with one hand while re-tightening the bolt with the socket. Repeat across all marked bolts
Step 3
Remove diaphragm spring handle by loosening and removing the bleed
Test that brackets are properly positioned by placing dome on top and twisting to lock into brackets (remove black cap from dome first)
Remove dome again and replace the cap for transportation
Replace handle and bleed
Step 4
If loose, carefully tighten ¼” NPT plug on outlet side of valve with a 14mm wrench
Be sure not cross thread or over-tighten
Step 5
Remove the two-piece water filter that comes with the valve from the inlet side of the valve using an 18mm wrench
Replace with a single-piece water filter (same as 2” filters with ¼” NPT thread)
Step 6
Make sure both elbow pieces (inlet filter and elbow connector on top of chamber) are pointed toward the outlet side of the valve
Step 7
Place greased o-ring on the inside rim of the outlet side of the 4” flow meter
Replace water conditioner and secure it in place with blue tape
Step 8
Thread the flow meter onto the inlet side of the valve
Tighten with strap wrench (You need one person to hold the valve and a second person to tighten it with the wrench)
Make sure the flow sensor cable is positioned toward the top side and that the cable reaches the port on the dome
Step 9
Add the long tube to the outlet port on the top of the chamber
Add the short tube to the filter on the inlet side
