NOTICE
To prolong the life of the series LFMMV when used in an
ASSE 1017 application, it is recommended that it be trapped as
shown; i.e. the hot water inlet to the LFMMV should be 8"-12"
(200-305mm) below the hot water supply feed.
Flow curves are for reference. Actual flows may vary depending
on system temperatures and/or pressures.

1. Let the water flow for at least two minutes to allow supply
temperature to stabilize.
2. Calibrate the mixed water outlet temperature by placing a
thermometer in the mixed water stream.
3. To adjust the setting of the valve, loosen locking cap screw
with hex wrench, see Figure 4. Cap must be lifted 1 /

adjust temperature. To increase the temperature, turn coun-
terclockwise. To decrease temperature turn clockwise.
4. Lower handle and tighten screw.
5. Check outlet temperature.
NOTICE
It is recommended that shutoff valve(s) be installed on the inlet(s)
to facilitate service of the LFMMV-M1 valve.
