How To Move Program Wheel To Set Gallons:
1 ) The "locking" teeth are under the part that says ( x100 ), so this is the critical area that must lift.
2 ) It is VERY HELPFUL ( maybe NECESSARY ) if you hold the Black Gear "down" while pulling up on the Clear portion.
3 ) Turn the Clear Portion counter clockwise, and Black Gear Clockwise
4 ) Line up "white" dot with the gallon setting you've computed.

This is the timer I have. It works well. Mine is set to regenerate every 700 gallons of water used.

Wow. First video i find and it's my model!! Thx Andy

Great info! Thanks. I have been trying to understand the manual for a few days. Life saver!!!

So, I have a hydro quad water softener with a similar timer. A family of six and extremely hard water here in Arizona. What should I set mine to? It's only connected to the inside of my home, not the irrigation or outside water. How often should it regenerate?

Computing Gallon Setting Take the grains capacity of your resin tank times 75% ( 0.75 ) divided by hardness ( in grains ), then subtract 75 gallons per person using the water as a reserve. Example: 32,000 grains x .75 = 24,000 divide by 20 grains hardness = 1,200 gallons - 150 ( 2 people ) = 1,050 setting. You set the gallons by lifting the clear portion of the program wheel, and align the white dot with the number of gallons you wish the unit to use prior to initiating a regenerate ( the night following the meter reaching Zero ). Also the salt setting should be 9 lbs. per cu. ft. of resins ( 32,000 grains ). You can find this adjustment on the "Brine Cam" gear inside the back of your control head. It is a small halve moon shaped piece that it held on to the Brine Cam with one screw. It has a small pointer which indicates the pounds of salt to be used per regeneration. If you do not know your resin tank capacity, send us the tank's height and diameter, and we will let you know how much resin is normally used in your size tank. We will also do the rest of the math for you, if provide the hardness & iron levels ( note: most "city" water does not contain iron ). Also, you might need to know that 17.1 ppm of hardness = 1 grain of hardness.

Thank you for the quick response!! Got it:)
