Replacing the Control Dial O-Rings

Replacing Cap O-Ring

 Hold cap in front of you

upside down with the o-ring
groove facing up. Place one
end of o-ring into cap groove
at the point closest to you.
Hold o-ring down with the
thumb and forefinger of one
hand.

 Take hold of the far end of

the o-ring with the thumb and
index finger of the other hand.
Roll o-ring slightly back
towards you as you stretch
the o-ring into the remainder
of the cap groove.

 Lubricate o-ring often with

silicone lubricant that came
with your Sparco Cycler. DO
NOT USE petroleum based
lubricants.

LUBRICANT

  Using a needle nose pliers,

find the snap ring tail located
at approximately the five o'clock
position under the control dial.

 Pull down and out of the

groove.

 Using a large screwdriver,

loosen the control dial.
Carefully pry the dial until it
pulls out.

 Insert the non-lipped end of

snap ring into the groove
opening beginning at the 5
o'clock position and push it up
so that it threads itself around
the control dial.

 Using a small screwdriver or

pointed tool to help guide it,
make sure the snap ring stays
in the groove as it is inserted.

 Carefully replace the rubber

o-ring without stretching it.
Apply silicone lubricant, that
came with your Sparco Cycler,
on o-ring.

 Push control dial completely

into the housing and turn the
dial to setting 2.
