    Look for Allegro on this valve, in the description of the list, instructions are clearly readable. This valve also has the function of emergency opening of the drain valve in the event of a cistern overflowing.

    I removed the cistern button and put a rubber disc about 2mm thick.
    We unscrew it from the tank -: - unscrew white nickel-plated housing (right-hand thread) -: - pull out white nickel-plated threads (are pressed in) -: - cut out something with a slightly larger hole than the spring -: - assembly. The pad will cause the "3-liter button" to have a smaller stroke.

    I also had a problem with this valve.
    I was able to determine that:
    Cersanit K99-0014 is the same drain valve as Intersano's EAN 5903338303049.

    The manual can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website or below.

    The blue float is used to determine the amount of water for the small button.

    I hope it will be useful to some.

    The lever with a float on the cistern's trigger mechanism should be completely submerged in the water, then the option of lower water consumption works.

    The manual does not include basic information about adjusting the blue float. If we want to reduce the amount of drained water with a smaller button, do we raise or lower the float?

    The higher the float is raised, the less water is released from the cistern (the quicker the pawl falls off), which is to hook into the groove when pressing the small button.

    You're right, but for me, after pressing the small button, the entire tank is emptied. I think it's the fault of the pawl not engaging the groove.

    Check if you have the main part correctly arranged, if the pawl fits into its place. Or maybe there's something wrong with the pawl itself.

    I talked to the sales rep about adjusting this valve. Of course, I checked all the tips I received in practice, but it did not bring any effect.

    I suspect that the lever on which the float is mounted may still be damaged (worn out), but I am supposed to get a new one from the manufacturer.

    I would like to inform everyone that the 3/6 L drain valve (Inter Sano EAN 5903338303049 or Cersanit K99-0014) also has a start-stop function. Even the manufacturer of the valve does not inform about this function on its website. The stop function works with the second press of the large button.

    Hello, I have a question, do these two buttons work independently? Because for me, if I press the small one, the big one presses in with it, or vice versa, when I press the big one, the small one also presses in. Thank you for your help

    Each manufacturer's button design is different. You should check it yourself without closing the lid on the tank. I also "walk" together, but when I press the little one, I subconsciously do it slowly so that the hook catches and half of the water spills out.

    A small and a lot of button from the valve Inter Sano EAN 5903338303049 or Cersanit K99-0014 always press together. The difference in their operation is that the large button is pressed in about 5 mm deeper.

    As for the float adjustment not working, it was the same with me. The solution was to wash out the float with the lever and plug it in a little further on the crown. Previously, the lever was resting on a piece of plastic (in the photo to the left of the lever) which puts the adjustment option out of use.

    I bought a start stop button and have control over the amount of water drained.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the functioning of the lever and float mechanism in a cistern's drain system, specifically addressing the adjustment of water levels for different flushing options. Users express confusion regarding the float's position and its impact on the cistern's operation, noting that the float remains submerged regardless of its placement on the lever. The blue float is identified as crucial for regulating the water volume for smaller flushes. Several users mention the complexity of the cistern's dual mechanisms for filling and draining, and some suggest that the float's adjustment may not be adequately covered in the manufacturer's manual. Additionally, there are discussions about the interaction between the flush buttons and the potential need for replacement parts if the mechanism is malfunctioning.
