Master divider valve equipped with performance indicator:
Action
1. Use a manual pump with gauge. Fill the pump with clean, filtered lubricant common to

2. Connect the manual pump into the inlet of the master divider valve and slowly operate
the pump. If the system will not cycle freely below 1,500 PSI, see step 2.
Action
1. With a manual pump connected to the master divider valve as outlined in step 1, raise
pressure to 2,000 PSI, the indicators in the indicator ports will signal the location of the
blockage.
An indicator in the up position indicates pressure is in that outgoing line and signals
the blockage is in the area being served from this outlet, as shown in Figure 4.
