PRESSURE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT (if field adjustable)

A change in the set point may be made by turning the adjusting ring located in the opening in the side of the body. Causing the ring to turn counter clockwise will lower the set point, and turning clockwise will raise the set point. For the best results after ressing the switch, cycle the system pressure level several times to stabilize the new set point. Repeat above procedure if necessary.
