REPAIR PROCEDURES
NOZZLE REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT:
1. Remove the Set Screw (F23), with a 5mm or 3/16” hexagon key.
2. Using a AVK hydrant wrench or adjustable hydrant wrench, rotate the Cap and Nozzle assembly clockwise approximately
40 degrees to align the nozzle lugs with the slots in the Nozzle Section (F504).
3. Gently pull the pull the Cap/Nozzle assembly out until the nozzle lugs are in line with the nozzle section lugs.
4. Using the AVK hydrant wrench or adjustable hydrant wrench, loosen the Hose Nozzle Cap (F19) in a counter clockwise
direction.
5. The Cap/Nozzle assembly can now be removed for inspection from the Nozzle Section . Check the Hose Nozzle Gasket
(F21) and the Hose Nozzle O-ring (F22) for damage and replace if necessary.
6. To replace, screw the Hose Nozzle Cap, with the Hose Nozzle Cap Gasket installed, on to the nozzle. Lightly grease the
Hose Nozzle O-ring and insert the Cap/Nozzle assembly into the Nozzle Section, making sure that the slotted lug on the
nozzle is at the 6 o'clock position. Tighten the Cap onto the Nozzle while the lugs prevent rotation, then complete the
insertion of the assembly. Using a hydrant wrench, rotate the assembly approximately 40 degrees, counter clockwise to
align the slotted lug with the Set Screw hole. Install the Set Screw. Remove the Cap and verify that the dimple is in line
with the Set Screw. Replace the Cap.
