Do-it-Yourself Repairs 

VALVE 

WASHER

33

TO REPLACE

1.

  Clean and dry the area (called the safety valve body) from which the 

used safety valve was unscrewed and into which the replacement safety 
valve will be screwed.

2.

  Place the replacement washer over the replacement safety valve as 

shown below.  

3.

  Hold the valve with the washer 

on it as shown above and apply a 
small amount of food compatible 
glue on the valve threads.  Holding 
the safety valve with the threads 
pointing into the safety valve body, 
screw the valve (with washer) 
clockwise into the safety valve body.  
Tighten clockwise with spanner.

Replacement of Plastic Handles

 

The short body handle, the long body handle and the lid handle are 

all replaceable by unscrewing the existing handle and screwing on a 
replacement handle.  Clean any accumulated dirt from the area before 
attaching the new handle.  

 

If the long body handle or the short body handle is difficult to 

unscrew, a second person holding the cooker body firmly while one 
person turns the handle screw anti-clockwise will make it easier.  

Sealing Ring Replacement

 

If leakage develops along the rim of the cooker body which is not 

due to the misalignment of the lid or a dent on the rim or lid curl, the 
sealing ring needs to be replaced.  This is simply done by changing it 
with a replacement genuine Futura sealing ring to fit the size of your 
Futura (see page 8).

Safety Valve Replacement

 

1.

  Get a genuine Futura safety valve.  The two parts of the safety valve are: 

2.

  The ring end of a 

3

/

4

 inch/19 mm offset spanner/wrench or the ring 

or open end of a 

3

/

4

 inch/19 mm spanner is recommended to replace 

the safety valve.

3.

  A food compatible glue is recommended.  

4.

  Remove the pressure regulator from lid.  

TO REMOVE

 

With one hand, hold and brace the lid upside down on a soft surface 

such as a folded kitchen cloth or a 
rubber mat.  Take care not to bend 
or warp the lid curl.  Do not hold 
the lid by the handle.  With the  
other hand, place a spanner on the 
used safety valve and unscrew 
the safety valve in the direction 
(anti-clockwise) shown by the two 
arrows marked on the safety valve.  
Remove safety valve and washer.  Discard; do not reuse either part.
