WARNING
!
Read this Manual BEFORE using this equipment.
Failure to read and follow all safety and use information can
result in death, serious personal injury, property damage, or
damage to the equipment.
Keep this Manual for future reference.
You are required to consult the local building and plumbing
codes prior to installation. If the information in this manual
is not consistent with local building or plumbing codes,
the local codes should be followed. Inquire with governing
authorities for additional local requirements.
WARNING
!
Need for Periodic Inspection/Maintenance: This product must
be tested periodically in compliance with local codes, but at least
once per year or more as service conditions warrant. If installed on
a fire suppression system, all mechanical checks, such as alarms
and backflow preventers, should be flow tested and inspected in
accordance with NFPA 13 and/or NFPA 25. All products must be
retested once maintenance has been performed. Corrosive water
conditions, and/or unauthorized adjustments or repair could render
the product ineffective for the service intended. Regular checking
and cleaning of the product’s internal components helps assure
maximum life and proper product function.
WARNING
!
Most field problems occur because dirt and debris present in the
system at the time of installation become trapped in the #1 check.
The system should be flushed before the backflow valve is
installed. If the system is not flushed until after the backflow valve
is installed, remove both check modules from the valve and open
the inlet shutoff to allow water to flow for a sufficient time to flush
debris from the water line. If debris in the water system continues
to cause fouling, a strainer can be installed upstream of the back-
flow assembly.
Watts Series 757 and 757DCDA/LF757DCDA may be installed in
either horizontal or vertical position as long as the backflow assem-
bly is installed in accordance with the direction of the flow arrow
on the assembly and the local water authority approves the instal-
lation. The assembly should be installed with adequate clearance
around the valve to allow for inspection, testing and servicing. 12"
should be the minimum clearance between the lower portion of the
assembly and the floor or grade.
NOTICE
Assembly body should not be painted.

WARNING
!
Prior to servicing any Watts valve, it is mandatory to shut down
the water system by closing both the inlet and outlet shutoff
valves. After shutoff valves are closed, open test cock #2, #3
and #4 to relieve pressure within the backflow assembly.
1. After #3 test cock has been opened to relieve pressure,
remove #3 test cock from housing. (Figure A)
2. Insert a #3 screwdriver through the hole on the top of the
cover sleeve and using both hands rotate the cover sleeve
approximately 1/4-turn clockwise and 1/4-turn counterclock-
wise to break the sleeve O-ring seals. Using the screwdriver,
slowly slide the cover sleeve to the downstream side of the
housing. (Figure B)
3. Remove the stainless steel check retainer from the housing.
(Figure B)
4. Remove the #1 check module (Figure C) by inserting two flat
blade screwdrivers into the slots on either side of the check
module and gently pry the check module toward the open
zone.
5. Remove #2 check module with the same instructions as in #4
above. For servicing 6" checks, see 8" – 10" instructions on
p. 3.
6. To clean or inspect either check module, insert a #3 screw-
driver through the downstream side of the check module as
shown in Figure D and E. When the screwdriver is in place,
remove the E-clip (Figure F) and pin connecting the structural
members and the check clapper will open with no tension.
7. Thoroughly clean the seating area. The sealing disc may be
removed, if necessary, by removing the screws connecting
the keeper plate to the clapper. The sealing disc may be
reversed and reinstalled if the elastomer is cut or damaged.
8. Wash check module and O-ring and inspect for any damage.
If damaged, reinstall new parts.
9. After thorough cleaning, lubricate O-ring w/FDA approved
lubricant, replace pin and E-clip in structural members,
remove screw driver and reinstall check modules and assem-
ble housing in reverse order of these instructions.

WARNING
!
Prior to servicing any Watts valve, it is mandatory to shut
down the water system by closing both the inlet and outlet
shutoff valves. After shutoff valves are closed, open test
cock #2, #3 & #4 to relieve pressure within the backflow
assembly.
1. After #3 test cock has been opened to
relieve pressure, remove #3 test cock from housing. When
repairing an 8" or 10" device, remove both Victaulic couplers
from body. Slide the downstream Victaulic coupler gasket to
the downstream side of the housing. The upstream Victaulic
coupler gasket stays in place.
2. Remove check/s to be serviced.
3. Locate the service hole and thread in the service bolt by hand
until it contacts the linkage. (Figure A)
4. Continue to thread in service bolt with the wrench until the
service hole in the linkage is aligned with the service notches
on the spring arbors. (Figure A)
5. Insert the Phillips screwdriver through the arbors and service
hole of the linkage making sure that the tip of the screwdriver
extends past the ends of the arbors by a minimum of 1/4".
(Figure B)
6. Back out the service bolt until load is transferred to the screw-
driver. Continue to back out the service bolt until sufficient
clearance is achieved to remove the complete spring mecha-
nism.
7. To disconnect linkage, remove retaining clip and pin (store in
a safe location for reinstallation).
8. To remove spring mechanism, grasp the screwdriver at the
center and pull complete assembly straight out and store in
a safe place.
9. Reinstall in reverse order.
WARNING
!
While the spring mechanism is removed for check servicing;
never pull the screwdriver out or off the support notches on the
arbors. Doing so may cause bodily injuries.
