OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS
START-UP AFTER A SHORT TERM OR STANDBY SHUTDOWN
WITHOUT DRAINING OPERATION UNDER USUAL CONDITIONS
COMPLETING START-UP
1. Check that the chemical pumps are pumping properly by turning each black priming valve knob
turn. Flow should be observed discharging through the return line hose in the chemical solution
bucket. Return the black priming valve knob to normal position. Note the chemical tank levels
and approximate time when they will require filling.
2. Connect the product water hose (from the TWPS product water discharge) to the distribution
tank.
3. Check the MF Feed Tank. Just before a backwash the level in the tank should be approximately
3/4 full. If low, slightly open raw water flow valve V-107. If the level is too high, slightly close Raw
Water Flow Valve V-107.
4. Refer to WP 0016, Maintaining Normal Operations; complete the Operator's Data Log and check
that all readings are within normal values.
