Filter start up
Proceed as follows:
•
make sure there are no water leaks by gradually opening
water supply to the filter;
•
gradually fill the filter to about full and then release air in
the filter by opening the breather screw on the head of the
device. Close the breather screw when finished.
The filter is now ready for correct use.
WARNING
Make sure that there are no water leaks from the product, and
especially control the tightening between the housing head and
the housing bowl. Continue checking that the tightening is good
and there is no water leakage for 48 hours following the installa-
tion and start-up. In case of leakage,open the housing, remove
the o-ring from the bowl, place a new o-ring and apply lubricant,
then re-tighten the bowl to head and repeat the leakage check
as above. Ask your vendor for o-rings, lubricant and other spare
parts.
Remark: after the installation, slowly turn on a water supply
(tap) downstream the installed unit and let the water flow for at
least 5 minutes before the use.

Routine maintenance
Self-cleaning pre-filter (figures 1, 2, 3):
Clean the filter cartridge in counter-current by opening the drain
valve for 15/20 seconds.
Repeat the operation with the same procedure one or more
times until the desired cleanliness is reached. If acceptable
cleanliness is not achieved for good filter operations, follow the
extraordinary maintenance procedure described below.
WARNING
During cleaning operations discontinue the water supply by
closing faucets or the bypass faucet downstream from the filter
to reach maximum pressure in counter-current and the best
cartridge cleaning results.
Post-filters (double):
Replace cartridges as indicated on the sticker of the cartridges;
if the sticker is damaged, not legible or missing, operate as fol-

extraordinary maintenance
In time, extraordinary cartridge cleaning is required as follows:
•
cut off water flow upstream from the filter;
•
release filter pressure by opening the water tap down-
stream from the filter;
•
open the filter unscrewing the cup from the head using
the spanner
•
remove the cartridge
•
clean the cartridge under a jet of cold water and use a soft
brush to remove most impurities;
•
insert the clean cartridge in the cup;
•
screw the cup onto the head;
•
follow the procedure under "FIRST USE" to reuse the filter;
WARNING
Replace post-filter cartriges with new ones to complete the
extraordinary maintenance of self-cleaning pre-filter.
WARNING
At re-start after every maintenance operation, when the filter's
bowl is unscrewed from head, change the o-ring with a new
one and carefully lubricate before tightening the bowl to
the head. Make sure that there are no water leaks from the
product and especially control the tightening beteween the
housing head and the housing bowl. Continue checking that
the tightening is good and there is no water leakage for 48
hours following the installation and start-up. In case of leakage,
open the housing, remove the o-ring from te bowl, place a new
o-ring and apply lubricant, then retighten the bowl to head
and repeat the leakage check as above. Ask your vendor for
original orings, lubricant and other spare parts.
Remark: after the maintenance, slowly turn on a water supply
(tap) downstream the installed unit and let the water flow for at
least 5 minutes before the use.

We recommend replacing stainless steel net cartridges at least
every 36 months. The filter bowl must be replaced with a new
one at least every 5 years.
Follow the local regulation in force when disposing cartridges
