INTRODUCTION
This manual is intended to assist the Operator and Service Personnel in the Operation and Maintenance
procedures to be performed.
WATER FLOW RATE
Dispensing Valve With Water Flowasher.
Water flowasher is at a fixed water flow rate and is nonadjustable.
Dispensing Valve With Adjustable Water Flow Regulator.
Turn dispensing valve water flow regulator adjusting screw to the left (counterclockwise) no more than 1/4 turn
at a time for less water or to the right (clockwise) no more than 1/4 turn at a time for more water.
WATER-TO-SYRUP ‘‘RATIO’’ OF DISPENSED PRODUCT
SF-1 Single-Flavor Dispensing Valve.
(see Figure 1)
NOTE: Make sure water flow rate is satisfactory or has been adjusted on dispensing valve with
adjustable water flow regulator.
Adjust Water-to-Syrup ‘‘Ratio’’ of dispensed product by using Ratio Cup (P/N 311100000) and Syrup Diversion
Tube Assembly (P/N 319540-000) as follows (see Figure 1).
1. Remove acorn nut securing cover on dispensing valve, then remove cover from valve.
2. Install syrup diversion tube assembly on dispensing valve by pushing rubber end of syrup diversion tube up
on baffle inside nozzle.
NOTE: Refer to syrup manufacturer’s recommendations on syrup package for Water-to-Syrup ‘‘Ratio’’.
3. Open dispensing valve and dispense just enough to fill syrup diversion tube with syrup.
4. Hold large chamber of ratio cup under dispensing valve nozzle. Place free end of syrup diversion tube into
syrup chamber marked for proper ratio. Open dispensing valve and dispense approximately 5 ounces of
water into ratio cup. Water and syrup levels should be even in cup.
5. Adjusting Syrup Flow Regulator. If water and syrup levels are not even in ratio cup, turn dispensing valve
syrup flow regulator labeled ‘‘SYRUP’’ adjusting screw to the left (counterclockwise) no more than 1/4-turn
at a time for less syrup or to the right (clockwise) no more than 1/4-turn at a time for more syrup.
6. Repeat Water-to-Syrup ‘‘Ratio’’ test and adjust syrup flow regulator as many times as necessary until
proper ratio of dispensed drink is achieved.
7. Remove syrup diversion tube assembly from dispensing valve.
8. Install dispensing valve cover and secure with acorn nut.
