Maintenance

Cleaning

Info

• Check and clean your filter washer at least twice a year
• Debris can be removed with a soft toothbrush and suitable cleaner where needed (white vinegar/CLR)
• Damaged filters/washers should be replaced
• In hard water areas, further cleaning may be required after periods of no use—as minerals will set in the body of the timer

1. Remove all tap fittings and the neck assembly from the timer
2. Your timer will need to be stable and upright—an egg carton (or similar) may assist with this
3. Make a 50/50 white vinegar and water solution—pour this into the top of your timer
4. Allow it to sit for 10 min then empty the timer and rinse well
5. Turn the timer upside down and repeat this on each outlet (fill outlet with solution, allow to sit, empty and rinse well)
   • Do not immerse your timer in cleaning solution

Cold Weather

• Your QuikDial should be removed from the tap and stored away during winter
• Keep your QuikDial out of freezing conditions as this can damage internal components

Batteries

• Remove batteries from your QuikDial during periods of non-use–this will erase all settings
• Battery leakage can cause corrosion and damage to your QuikDial
• Please only use quality alkaline batteries in your tap timer
• Do not mix old and new batteries
• Do not use rechargeable batteries

Troubleshooting

Incorrect Decal

• If you have received a QuikDial with the batch number 23/36, it is likely this will have the incorrect face decal due to a printing error. This will not affect the functionality of the QuikDial, however may cause some confusion in the initial set up process
• If you have the QuikDial batch number 23/36, the face will look like the below image (highlighted in red), Zone Select should be referred too as ‘Start’
• Please refer too the below for the correct set up:

Troubleshooting

Question / Answer

• Why won’t my timer stop watering?
  • If your QuikDial Tap Timer is installed on a short run or pressure compensating system, there can be issues with the valve closing
  • This is due to more water on offer than can exit the system— creating a pressure differential
  • This can be mitigated using a pressure reducer
  • Your timer may have a blockage preventing the valve from closing– contact customer service at support@holmanindustries.com.au for assistance
• Why is there no water coming into the system?
  • Check if the filter is clogged, clean if required—refer to Cleaning for more information
  • Check for blockages in the sprinkler/ emitter, clean if required
  • There may be an airlock—remove your timer from the tap and give it a shake to displace the airlock

FAQ

• Q: How do I reset the Tap Timer?
  • A: To reset the Tap Timer, follow the resetting instructions provided in the user manual. Typically, this involves removing and reinserting the batteries and reconfiguring the settings.
