FLOAT KIT SHORT 2 X M5 “D” SHACKLES & 1 X M10 NIPPLE COCKY 100390215

Install the float kit by attaching the M5 shackles to the float ball and connecting the M10 nipple to your water trough valve body, ensuring the thread size matches your existing valve (typically 3/4" or 1"). Adjust the shackle position so the float ball moves freely up and down without obstruction, allowing it to rise with water level and trigger the shutoff mechanism when the trough reaches desired fullness. Check that all connections are tight and the ball operates smoothly through its full range of motion before allowing livestock access. Tips: Position the float ball away from direct water inlet spray to prevent erratic movement and false shutoffs. For high-pressure bore water systems, ensure your float ball size provides adequate leverage for reliable shutoff—larger balls generally perform better under pressure. Regularly inspect the ball and shackles for algae buildup or debris that may restrict movement, cleaning as needed to maintain consistent operation.
