Default New JetTronic Brake Valve Instructions

Guys,

I have one of the new low loss JetTronic brake valves but no instructions etc. It's doing a couple of odd things so I am sure it needs setting up.

Anyone have a link to a set of instructions? Don't remember mine coming with any??

Thanks,
Mark

Mark, with the brake lever in the off position press the green LED button once. Move the brake lever to the full position and press the red LED button once. This is the basic setup but there is a second part to adjust the braking efficiency which I haven't really played with yet to fully understand.

I think it is similar to the older valve where you move the brake lever from the off position until it just starts the braking action and then press the red LED for 3 or more seconds. This is suppose to distribute the pressure equally over the entire range of the valve according to the instructions (whatever that means).

To reset the valve; press both buttons while turning on power.

This is the best I can get from the instructions until I work with it some. Maybe this will at least get you started...Gary

Guys, has anyone get any instructions they'd be willing to scan? Have mailed Jettronic but had no reply for a couple of days. Messed around a bit with it yesterday but the green and red lights just kept flicking on and off in no obvious pattern!

Cheers
