1. Remove the six cap screws (key 10) from the perimeter of the spring case assembly (key 3), and lift off the
assembly, taking care you do not lose the upper spring (key 6).
2. Remove the diaphragm assembly (key 4) and diaphragm spacer assembly (key 2) as a unit. The two small O-rings
(key 22) will stay attached to the diaphragm spacer assembly (key 2).
3. Unscrew the valve assembly (key 5) from the body. The seat ring (key 5A) has a 2 inch hex for removal.
4. If you are replacing a complete valve assembly (key 5), proceed to step 10.
5. If you are replacing an upper valve (key 5C) and a lower valve and stem (key 5B), loosen the hex nut (key 5E), and
remove the upper valve. Remove the hex nut. Remove the lower guide (key 5F) and the lower spring (key 5J).
Remove the lower valve and stem (key 5B) from the seat ring (key 5A).
6. Insert the replacement lower valve and stem (key 5B) into the seat ring (key 5A) and install the hex nut (key 5E) on
the stem.
7. Replace the O-ring (key 5H) and apply lubricant (key 18) to both the O-ring (key 5H) and the guide bore of the lower
guide (key 5F).
8. Install the lower spring (key 5J) and the lower guide (key 5F). Tighten to 61 N•m (45 lbf•ft).
9. Apply threadlock adhesive (mild strength) or equivalent to the threads of the lower valve and stem (key 5B) and
install the upper valve (key 5C). Tighten the hex nut (key 5E) to 4.5 N•m (40 lbf•in) with the lower surface of the
upper valve (key 5C) aligned with the upper surface of the seat ring (key 5A) as shown in figure 5.
