(2) Disassembly Inspection
•
Refer to the “Disassembly/Reassembly” section.
•
As a general rule, this inspection should be performed at least once every 2 years.
•
When inspecting the interior of the unit, check the following items:
a) Make sure the push rod does not catch on anything during snap-action (the up-
down movement of the push rod) and moves smoothly as the float rises and falls.
b) Make sure the valve shafts in the intake (motive medium) and exhaust valves
move up and down smoothly. The gap between the stem of the closed intake
(motive medium) valve and the push plate should be within the specified range
(2 mm±0.3 mm, 0.079±0.012 in). The exhaust valve will have some movement
when open, but should be stable when closed.)
c) Make sure the float is not damaged and has not filled with water.
d) Make sure all nuts and bolts are properly installed and fastened.
e) Check to make sure that there is no foreign matter sticking to the shafts and
levers of any of the units, and make sure there is no abnormal wear.
•
When reassembling, be sure to replace the body and cover gaskets with new
gaskets.
•
Also replace any parts that are broken or show serious wear.
