Guide Bushing Replacement
To change the guide bushings, follow the steps listed below.
1.
Open the valve about halfway.
2.
Remove the two bolts holding the old bushing in
place and remove the old bushing.
3.
Place the new bushing into position.
4.
Insert the bolts, attach the nuts, and tighten.
5.
Run the valve up and down. If any slowing of the valve movement or jamming is noticed,
loosen the bolts on one bushing and pull it away from the guide rod, towards the center of the
valve, to allow some clearance between the bushing and guide rod, then re-tighten the bolts.
6.
If slowing or jamming still occurs, loosen the guide bushing bolts on the opposite side and
repeat the operations of step 5.
