not intended for any extensive field
adjustment or repair. Field replace-
ment parts are limited to seal kits,
cartridges, valve sections and tie rods.
Replacement of these parts, the
opening of check cavities and certain
relief cavities to examine for trapped
dirt, or resetting of the main relief valve
with the use of good pressure gauge,
should be referred to qualified service
personnel.
