I. Excess or Insufficient Output Pressure
• Inspect the control hoses, connectors, shuttle valves and
adapters. Replace as necessary.
• Rotate the adjustment screw atop of the pilot valve. Rotate

• Repair or replace the pilot valve.
K. Excess or Insufficient Flow Rate
• Inspect the control hoses, connectors, shuttle valves and
adapters.

• Rotate the adjustment screw on the top of the pilot valve.
Rotate clockwise to increase flow rate or counterclockwise
to reduce the flow rate as necessary.
• Clean and check the orifice and gaskets. Replace as
necessary.
• Remove and clean the finger strainer. Replace if necessary.
