Loosen the two tension clamps and lower the clamps
into the position shown in this picture.
4.
Remove the seal and clean any debris from the bottom
of the tube and groove.
5.
Install the replacement seal over the valve tube and
move the clamp into position. Make sure that the
tensioner clamps are located between the lift bar
bolts.
6.
Tighten the tensioner clamps. Make sure to tighten
each clamp equally as this will eliminate a problem
of the clamp releasing as one of the tensioners is not
engaged enough to hold the clamp.
When the valve is closed, ensure no light is passing between the bottom seal and base ring. If light is
passing through in a specific area, loosen the tensioner clamp and push the seal down in the specific area,
then tighten the clamp ring. Repeat until light is no longer visible.

To remove the valve, please refer to the valve removal section in the maintenance section of this manual.
