3. Push the two bolts (100-318) through the tube spacers
(331-074) & screw into the cover assembly (331-234).
Using a 1/2" wrench, tighten the two bolts evenly
(alternating between them) until you reach 20 ft-lbs.
4. Reassemble lower suction valve assembly by placing
the suction seat (331-409) O-ring (106-011), suction
ball (331-030) and suction ball guide (331-029) in the
suction nut (331-034) & screw onto the fl uid pump body.
5. Start the machine & operate slowly to check the piston
rod for binding. Adjust the bolts, holding the fl uid
pump body to the cover assembly, if necessary. This
will eliminate any binding.

against the Belleville Springs, then go 3/4 of a turn
more. Put fi ve drops of Airlessco Throat Seal Oil
into the packing nut.
7. Run the machine at full pressure for several minutes.
