CLEANING AND INSPECTION
1. Clean all metal parts in mineral spirits and dry them
completely.
2. Inspect all parts for excessive wear or deterioration.
Inspect valve seats for nicks or burrs.
3. Inspect the bores of the valve housing for deep scuffing
or gouges.
Replace all parts that were discarded and any parts not
found to be serviceable during inspection, using only genuine
Bendix replacement parts.
ASSEMBLY
Before assembling the DC-4
o-ring grooves with Bendix silicone lubricant (Pc. No. 291126)
or equivalent.
NOTE: When using pipe thread sealant during assembly
and installation, take particular care to prevent the
sealant from entering the valve itself. Apply the
sealant beginning with the second thread back from
the end.
1. Install the disc guide, disc and/or shuttle and shuttle
guide.
2. Coat all static seals such as o-rings, grommets, etc.
with BW 650M Silicone lubricant (BW 291126). It is not
necessary to lubricate shuttles or discs.
3. Install the grommets.
4. Install the end cap(s).
TESTING OF REBUILT DOUBLE CHECK VALVE
Perform operating and leakage tests as described in "Service
Checks" section.
GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
WARNING! PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW
THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH:
When working on or around a vehicle, the
following general precautions should be
observed at all times.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, apply the
parking brakes, and always block the wheels.
Always wear safety glasses.
2. Stop the engine and remove ignition key when
working under or around the vehicle. When
working in the engine compartment, the engine
should be shut off and the ignition key should be
removed. Where circumstances require that the
engine be in operation, EXTREME CAUTION should
be used to prevent personal injury resulting from
™
valve, lubricate all o-rings and
TO
AVOID
contact with moving, rotating, leaking, heated or
electrically charged components.
3. Do not attempt to install, remove, disassemble or
assemble a component until you have read and
thoroughly understand the recommended
procedures. Use only the proper tools and observe
all precautions pertaining to use of those tools.
4. If the work is being performed on the vehicle's air
brake system, or any auxiliary pressurized air
systems, make certain to drain the air pressure
from all reservoirs before beginning ANY work on
the vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with an
AD-IS
®
air dryer system or a dryer reservoir
module, be sure to drain the purge reservoir.
5. Following
the
recommended procedures, deactivate the
electrical system in a manner that safely removes
all electrical power from the vehicle.
6. Never exceed manufacturer's recommended
pressures.
7. Never connect or disconnect a hose or line
containing pressure; it may whip. Never remove a
component or plug unless you are certain all
system pressure has been depleted.
8. Use only genuine Bendix
components and kits. Replacement hardware,
tubing, hose, fittings, etc. must be of equivalent
size, type and strength as original equipment and
be designed specifically for such applications and
systems.
9. Components with stripped threads or damaged
parts should be replaced rather than repaired. Do
not attempt repairs requiring machining or welding
unless specifically stated and approved by the
vehicle and component manufacturer.
10. Prior to returning the vehicle to service, make
certain all components and systems are restored
to their proper operating condition.
11. For vehicles with Antilock Traction Control (ATC),
the ATC function must be disabled (ATC indicator
lamp should be ON) prior to performing any vehicle
maintenance where one or more wheels on a
drive axle are lifted off the ground and moving.
