Gasket 

• Remove with a 22 mm 

(

") socket wrench and 

extension bar, being 
very careful not to drop 
the steel ball and screen 
resting on top of the 
valve seat. 

• Be careful not to lose 

the gasket. 

• Make sure you are reinserting the intake (motive 

medium) valve seat, which has no holes. (The seat 
with the holes is the exhaust valve seat.) 

• Make very sure you are reinserting the intake valve 

seat into the left hole in the top of the cover. (It is the 
hole with the plug in the top.)   

• Insert the valve seat, with its gasket, from the bottom 

of the hole, then hand tighten. 

• Remove the plug from the top with a 300 mm (12") 

adjustable wrench.   

• Drop the screen straight into the hole, and then drop 

in the ball.   

• Wrap plug threads with 3 – 3.5 turns of sealing tape 

or apply sealing compound. 

• Check that the screen is seated straight, then reinsert 

the plug. 

• Tighten the plug to a torque of 30 N

m (22 ft

lb).  

• Tighten the valve seat to a torque of 80 N

• Make sure you are reinserting the exhaust valve seat, 

which has holes. (The seat with no holes is the intake 
valve seat.) 

• Make very sure you are reinserting the exhaust valve 

seat into the right hole in the top of the body. (It is the 
hole with no plug in the top.)   

• Insert the valve seat, with its gasket, from the bottom 

of the hole, hand tighten, then tighten to a torque of
