B. Inspect the exhaust valve (4). Lift up the edges
and inspect the sealing surface underneath. It should
be clean and free of scratches. The exhaust valve (4)
should be flexible and have well defined edges. If it is
in good condition, it is not necessary to remove it and
it may be reused. If it shows signs of deterioration, it
must be replaced.
5. Remove Retaining Nut (8), Bushing (7)

it in place by turning the adjustment knob (26) CCW

the adjustment knob (26) can result in bending the
retaining pin (18), thus making it difficult to
remove and causing replacement.

carefully slide the entire valve assembly (17) out of
the main housing (1) by pushing on the inlet side
of the valve housing (17). Be careful not to release
the lever (19) before it clears the main housing (1).
