Aqua-Pure CSM1501 - Manual (Page 13)

The regeneration cycle program on your water softener has been factory preset,
however, portions of the cycle or program may be lengthened or shortened in time
to suit local conditions.
To expose cycle program wheel, grasp time clock in upper left-hand corner and
pull, releasing snap retainer and swinging time clock to the right.
To change the regeneration cycle program, the program wheel must be removed.
Grasp program wheel and squeeze protruding lugs toward center, lift program
wheel off time clock. (Switch arms may require movement to facilitate removal.)
After making any desired changes, as desired below, return program wheel dial
to closed position.
Return time clock to closed position engaging snap retainer in back plate. Make
certain all electrical wires locate above snap retainer post.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LENGTH OF THE
BACKWASH TIME:
The program wheel as shown in the drawing is in the service position. As you
look at the numbered side of the program wheel, the group of pins starting at zero
determines the length of time your unit will backwash.
FOR EXAMPLE: If there are six pins in this section, the time of backwash will be 12
min. (2 min. per pin). To change the length of backwash time, add or remove pins
as required. The number of pins times two equals the backwash time in minutes.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LENGTH OF BRINE AND RINSE
TIME:
The group of holes between the last pin in the backwash section and the second group of pins determines the length of time that your unit will brine and rinse.
(2 min. per hole)
To change the length of brine and rinse time, move the rapid rinse group of pins to give more or fewer holes in the brine and rinse section. Number of holes
times two equals brine and rinse time in minutes.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LENGTH OF RAPID RINSE:
The second group of pins on the program wheel determines the length of time that your water softener will rapid rinse (2 minutes per pin).
To change the length of rapid rinse time, add or remove pins at the higher numbered end of this section as required. The number of pins times two equals the
rapid rinse time in minutes.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LENGTH OF BRINE TANK REFILL TIME:
The second group of holes on the program wheel determines the lengths of time that your water softener will refi ll the brine tank. Each hole represents 2 mins.
and 3 pounds of salt.
To change the length of refi ll time, move the two pins at the end of the second group of holes as required.
The regeneration cycle is complete when the outer micro-switch is tripped by the two pin set at end of the brine tank refi ll section. The program wheel, however,
will continue to rotate until the inner micro-switch drops into the notch on the program wheel.
NOTE: For salt dosages greater than 15 lbs. (6.8 kg) grid leg extensions must be attached to bottom of grid legs.
