(NOTE: Instructions are the same for 4 port or 5 port Flex Manifolds. Will need one kit for each Flex Manifold to replace)
1. Turn off all water supplies that are connected to the
Ice/Beverage Dispenser
2. Turn off the CO
2
gas that connects to the dispenser’s
carbonator tank.
3. Activate a plain water beverage valve and a carbon-

dispenser and the carbonator pump.
5. Remove the front splash panel to access the Flex
Manifold’s and the Merchandiser to access the valves.
6. Remove any and all line holding bars at bottom front
of foam front panel. See FIGURE 1.
7. Removing the valves, valve blocks, and dropping just
the water lines, will help with easier access to the Flex
Manifold. Syrup lines and the end (outer) valve water
lines can stay in place. See FIGURE 2
8. Unclip the Insulated Flex Manifold from its two side
brackets. See FIGURE 3.
9. Remove existing insulation cover from the Flex Mani-
fold, front. New insulation pieces are provided.
10. Remove the four (4) screws holding the Flex Manifold
to its plate. See FIGURE 4.
11. Make sure you mark the water lines going to each
valve, or keep them in line so you can replace in the
new Flex Manifold properly.
12. Pry the existing Flex Manifold away from the existing
mounting plate, using screwdriver. Take all lines out
of existing plate. Note their locations for the new plate.
13. Examine all o-rings on the existing lines, verify they
are OK. Replace any that require it.
14. Assemble the new Plate and new back base insulation
piece first. Remove adhesive backing, punch out the
holes, and align as in FIGURES 5 and 6.
Note: Pre-install the four (4) self tapping screws in
each of the plate corner holes and then remove.
This will make it easier to install.
