Most Low onsumption water closets (1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf) require a minimum flowing pressure of 5 psi (17 kpa). With the exception of ontrol Stop Inlet, O NOT use pipe sealant or plumbing grease on any valve component or coupling! Never open ontrol Stop to where the flow from the valve exceeds the flow capability of the fixture. In the event of a valve failure, the fixture must be able to accommodate a continuous flow from the valve. Protect the chrome or special finish of Gem Flushometers O NOT USE toothed tools to install or service these valves. Use a Sloan -50 Super-Wrench, Sloan -109 Plier Wrench or smooth jawed spud wrench to secure all couplings. lso see are and leaning section of this manual. This product contains mechanical and/or electrical components that are subject to normal wear. These components should be checked on a regular basis and replaced as needed to maintain the valve s performance.

TURN OUNTER- LOKWISE TO OPEN TURN LOKWISE TO LOSE djust ontrol Stop after each flush until the rate of flow delivered properly cleanses the fixture. The Sloan Gem Flushometer is engineered for quiet operation. Excessive water flow creates noise, while too little water flow may not satisfy the needs of the fixture. Proper adjustment is made when plumbing fixture is cleansed after each flush without splashing water out from the lip N a quiet flushing cycle is achieved. Never open ontrol Stop to where the flow from the valve exceeds the flow capability of the fixture. In the event of a valve failure, the fixture must be able to accommodate a continuous flow from the valve. Install Vandal Resistant ontrol Stop ap onto ontrol Stop. ONTROL STOP P H-700- K HEK ONTROL STOP TROULESHOOTING GUIE 1. Valve does not function (no flush).. ontrol Stop or Main Valve is losed. Open ontrol Stop or Main Valve.. Handle ssembly is worn.

Volume of water is not sufficient to siphon fixture.. ontrol Stop not open enough. djust ontrol Stop for desired delivery of water.. Urinal Piston Parts inside a loset Flushometer. Replace Piston Parts with proper loset Piston.. Low onsumption Flushometer installed on a non-low onsumption fixture. Replace with proper Piston Kit.. Inadequate volume or pressure at supply. Increase water pressure or supply (flow) to Flushometer. onsult Factory for assistance. 3. Length of flush is too short (Short Flushing) or Flushometer closes off immediately.. Piston ssembly is not hand-tight. Screw the assembly hand-tight.. Enlarged ypass orifice from corrosion or damage. Install NEW Inside Piston Kit to correct problem and update Flushometer.. Urinal Piston in loset Flushometer. Replace Piston with proper loset Piston.. Low onsumption Piston installed in non-low onsumption fixture. Replace Piston with proper loset Piston. E. Handle ssembly is worn. Replace Sloan Handle ssembly (G-143-). 4. Length of flush is too long (Long Flushing) or fails to close off.. Piston is not seating properly or ypass orifice is clogged because of foreign material, or ypass orifice is closed by an invisible gelatinous film from over-treated water. isassemble the working parts and wash thoroughly.
