Remove the O-ring (9) <br /> chambers and intermediate which retains the filter inside the air inlet. Tilt pump forward and <br /> shake filter out of inlet. Clean filter and return filter to position <br /> inside air inlet. Slide O-ring back into position. <br /> If there is evidence that the components of the air valve may <br /> have become damaged the air valve is accessed by removing the <br /> \ four bolts (1I)from the intermediate. Remove valve plate(5) and <br /> shuttle valve (6) and inspect plate for surface scratches. If badly <br /> scratched, replace. Note: The pump can be left piped while ser- <br /> vicing air valve. <br /> The air valve plug (1) at the bottom of the air valve is removed <br /> o by utilizing compressed air. Push the plug and"air valve spool out <br /> of the air valve body .with the aid of the compressed air applied in <br /> the port nearest the closed end of the air valve(7). The lower end <br /> plug O-Ring (44) may be left in place. See diagram of air valve <br /> components below. <br /> Single vertical air passage slot <br /> is at the top of the intermediate.

Line up the witness e <br /> marks, then assemble the band clamp. The clamp halves (16) ne- <br /> cessarily fit tightly over the outer chamber and intermediate, par- <br /> ticularly when an overlay is used with the diaphragm. To make <br /> this assembly easy get a piece of twine about 18 inches long.

Place the check balls, seats, and 0-rings in position. Item 7 VALVE PLATE <br /> Be certain that the O-ring groove side of the seat is facing up. <br /> Item 5 <br /> 16. Notice the position of the port in the manifold. Place the in- <br /> termediate assembly over the bolts with the check ball cavities <br /> facing up. Make sure, the air valve is on the proper side of the ®® , <br /> pump from the discharge port for your application. Usually both I <br /> ports are on the opposite side from the air valve. Then place the <br /> check ball(27), valve seat(26)and check valve O-ring(38) in po- <br /> sition in the intermediate. See picture. <br /> 17. Place the preassembled inlet manifold over the intermediate SHUTTLE <br /> subassembly. Be certain that the 0-rings remain centered in their <br /> grooves. Place flat washers (10) and nuts (19) on bolts (35) and VALVE <br /> tighten to 120 in-pounds. Item 6 <br /> 18. Test the integrity of the assembly with a safe liquid and slow- <br /> ly bring the air up to 100 psi (6,8 bars) with the discharge port <br /> shut off. Look for a leak and tighten bolts again, if necessary. <br /> Page 7 Zp�:�025T0� <br />
