SEAL & SPACER TOOLS & REPLACEMENT
CONTINUED
11. To replace seals, spacers and end ring, use special
tool with the brass sleeve on one end. This is a double-
purpose tool (see Figure 5). The male end acts as a pilot
to hold the spacers as they are pushed into the valve body
and the brass female end is used to insert the seals into
the valve body.

12. To restuff a valve body, first take the end ring (the plastic
or brass ring without holes), then with your thumb press
the button on the brass sleeve end. The large dia. inner
portion is now exposed (see Figure 8). Place the end ring
on this pilot with the lip on the end ring facing the tool.
Push the tool into the valve body bore until it bottoms.
While the tool is in the valve body, take a seal and press it
into the inside diameter of the exposed brass female end.
13. Remove the tool, turn it end for end and insert it into
the valve body bore. While holding the large dia. of the
tool, slide it all the way into the valve body bore until it
bottoms. Then push the center button to push the seal of
the tool and leave it in place in the valve body.
14. Remove the tool from the valve body and push the center
on the brass female end to expose the pilot on the
opposite end. Place a spacer on this end and insert the
spacer and tool into the valve.
