2. Removing / Reattaching the Float
It is not necessary to remove the float if only the intake (motive medium) and exhaust
valves are to be serviced or replaced. It is not always necessary to replace the float when
replacing the snap-action unit. The float should be replaced only when there are
irregularities such as damage to its exterior or condensate found inside the float.

Float
• Using a 300 mm (12 in) long adjustable wrench and a 19
mm (
3
/
4
in) open-end torque wrench and an adjustable
wrench, disengage the float from the lever arm. The
adjustable wrench is applied and held to the bolt head
welded to the float end of the lever arm, and the open-end
torque wrench is applied to the float connector. The
purpose of the two tools is to stabilize the bolt in order to
loosen the float without twisting the lever arm.
• Loosen the float only one turn with the two wrenches.
• Complete the removal of the float with both hands, being
careful not to drop the float or lose the spring washer.
• Be sure to reassemble
with the spring washer.
