8.1 DISASSEMBLY TIPS
Note: If
handle adapter (4)
or
adjusting nut (14)
appears to be stuck or locked,
pressure may be trapped in the valve. This is also known as “pressure locking.” Do
not attempt to disassemble a “pressure locked” valve.
The SafeTap
™
grease fitting allows for the safe relief of trapped pressure
within a valve. Extreme caution must be followed when attempting to relieve
a pressure locking situation. Slowly turn the grease fitting ¼ CCW turn to
relieve the pressure. Actuate the valve to ensure all pressure has been
relieved. After the removal of all trapped pressure, you may remove all
components. See section
