qualified to carry out such tasks.
NOTICE
!
Risk of damage to control valve compo-
nents due to excessively high or low tight-
ening torques.
Observe the specified torques when tighten-
ing control valve components. Excessive
tightening torques lead to parts wearing out
more quickly. Parts that are not tightened far
enough may loosen.
Î Observe the specified tightening torques
(u AB 0100).
NOTICE
!
Risk of damage to control valve compo-
nents due to the use of unsuitable tools.
Certain tools are required to work on the

(u AB 0100).
NOTICE
!
Risk of damage to control valve compo-
nents due to the use of unsuitable lubri-
