Disassembly / Reassembly
Step 9
Remove one set of large clamp bands
which secure one liquid chamber to the
center section.
Step 10
Lift liquid chamber away from center
section to expose diaphragm and
outer piston.
Step 11
Using an adjustable wrench remove
the diaphragm assembly.
Step 12
NOTE:
Due to varying torque values, one of the following two situations may occur:
1) The outer piston, diaphragm and inner piston remain attached to the shaft and the
entire assembly can be removed from the center section.
2) The outer piston, diaphragm and inner piston separate from the shaft which remains
connected to the opposite side diaphragm assembly. Repeat disassembly instructions
for the opposite liquid chamber. Inspect diaphragm assembly and shaft for signs of
wear or chemical attack. Replace all worn parts with genuine Wilden parts for
reliable performance.
Step 13
To remove diaphragm assembly from shaft,
secure shaft with soft jaws (a vise fitted with
plywood, plastic or other suitable material) to
ensure shaft is not nicked, scratched or
gouged. Using an adjustable wrench, remove
diaphragm assembly from shaft.
