Installing Access Port Cover

1.   It is best to never remove the access port O-ring (A). Should the access port 

O-ring (A) become dislodged, simply insert it back into access port groove (B).

2.   Slide the access port cover (C) into place being certain that access port O-ring 

(A) does not become dislodged during the process.

3.   Insert tapered washers (E), flat side facing up, and cover bolts (D) into tapered 

cover holes (F). tapered washers (E) must be properly installed or the access 

port cover (C) will not seal under pressure.

4.   Use 

15

" socket wrench (G) to tighten the 

4

 center cover bolts (D) alternating 

from one side of the valve to the other. Then tighten the 

4

 corner bolts  

alternating from one side of the valve to the other.

wrench close main test cocks number 2, 3, and 4 (A). (Test

to water flow through test cock).

2.   Deringer 30/30X: Using a #2 flathead screwdriver close 

bypass test cock number 1 and 2 (B). (Test cock is closed 

when screwdriver slot on stem is perpendicular to water flow 

through test cock).

3.   Use the “T” handles to open bypass ball valve number 1 (D) 

and then open bypass ball valve number 2 (C). (Ball valve is 

open when “T” handle is parallel to water flow through  

ball valve).
