GENERAL SERVICE HINTS
FOR METER CONTROL
Problem: Softener Delivers Hard Water
Cause could be that . . . Reserve capacity has been exceeded.
Correction: Check salt dosage requirements and reset program wheel to provide additional reserve.
Cause could be that . . . Program wheel is not rotating with meter output.
Correction: Pull cable out of meter cover and rotate manually. Program wheel must move without binding and clutch
must give positive “clicks” when program wheel strikes regeneration stop. If it does not, replace timer.
Cause could be that . . . Meter is not measuring flow.
Correction: Check output by observing rotation of small gear on front of timer (Note - program wheel must not be
against regeneration stop for this check). Each tooth to tooth is approximately 30 gallons. If not preforming properly,
replace meter.
