4. 설정 및 설치

The Sioux Chief 660-TK is designed for straightforward installation, typically at the point of water hammer, such as a toilet fill valve connection. Follow these steps carefully:

1. 물 공급을 차단하세요: Locate the water shut-off valve for the fixture (e.g., toilet) or the main water supply to your home and turn it off completely.
2. Drain Fixture: Flush the toilet or open the faucet to drain any remaining water from the tank or line. Flush the toilet a second time to ensure the tank is empty.
3. Disconnect Water Line: Unscrew the flexible water supply line from the fixture's fill valve connection. Be prepared for a small amount of residual water to drip out.
4. Inspect and Prepare Threads: Inspect the threads on the fixture's fill valve and the flexible supply line. If desired, apply plumber's tape (PTFE tape) to the male threads of the arrester for an extra seal, especially if previous connections have leaked. Some users also recommend checking the internal seat of the arrester for proper sealing and applying tape if necessary, using an appropriate hex wrench.
5. Install Arrester: Screw the male threaded end of the Sioux Chief 660-TK directly onto the fixture's fill valve connection. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench for a snug fit, being careful not to overtighten.
6. Reconnect Water Line: Screw the flexible water supply line onto the female swivel ballcock nut connection of the arrester. Hand-tighten, then use a wrench to secure it.
7. 물 공급 복구: 수도 공급을 천천히 다시 시작하세요.
8. 누출 확인: Carefully inspect all connections for any signs of leaks. Tighten gently if necessary.

5. 사용 설명서

The Sioux Chief 660-TK Mini Rester operates passively once installed. It contains an air chamber that compresses and expands to absorb sudden changes in water pressure, thereby preventing water hammer. No manual operation is required during normal use. The device will continuously work to dampen pressure surges as water flows through your plumbing system.

6. 유지관리

Over time, the air chamber within the arrester can become waterlogged, reducing its effectiveness. If water hammer noises return, the arrester may need to be reset. This process reintroduces air into the chamber.

Resetting the Air Chamber:

1. 물 공급을 차단하세요: Turn off the water supply to the fixture where the arrester is installed (e.g., the toilet shut-off valve).
2. Disconnect Arrester: Carefully unscrew the flexible water supply line from the arrester. You may hear a small "thud" or hiss as air enters the chamber.
3. Allow Air Entry: Allow the arrester to remain disconnected for a few moments to ensure air fully refills the chamber.
4. Reconnect Arrester: Reconnect the flexible water supply line to the arrester, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection.
5. 물 공급 복구: 수도 공급을 천천히 다시 시작하세요.
6. 시험: Operate the fixture to confirm that the water hammer noise has been eliminated.

This reset procedure may need to be performed periodically, depending on water quality and usage.
