STEL 8 0 INSTALL LOUlER T»SE Install the pre- drilled and dimpled end of the lower tube onto the bottom of the valve body aligning the three (3) dimpled Wes with the tapped holes in the body. I Install the three (3) flathead screws into the dimpled holes and tighten securely. Use only the stainless steel locking screws supplied. The Figure 8 screw heads must be flush with or below the outside surface of the lower drop tube, Note: 61 SOM Methanol Models are supplied with a Drop Tube Connector Kit which !s used to attach a fiberglass (FRP) drop tube (supplied by )thers). STEP 9 O CUT LOWER TUBE AT 450 ANGLE Measuring from the underside of the inlet lube flange, mark the overall length of the drop tube a distance of (B) minus 6" or as per local codes or requirements. Determine dimension (B) from the measurements taken in Step 1, Figure 1 (Tip of the riser pipe to the bottom of the tank). Saw off the excess tube at a 45 degree angle and file off any sharp burrs. (Refer to Figure 1 &14) STEP 10 ❑PREPARE FILL RISER FOR VALVE INSERTION Remove the fight fill adaptor and existing drop tube from the tank riser pipe. IMPORTANT: Inspect the riser pipe for any foreign material. Over. spray from tank relining or any internal burrs inside of pipe must be removed prior to installation. Failure to have an unobstructed riser pipe may prevent proper installation or operation of the valve. STEP 110 REMOVE ELASTIC BAND Remove the elastic band securing the float to the valve body. The float will move into an outward position. C STEP 72 O 9NSERT DROP TUBE Make sure the gasket is under the flange of the inlet tube. Hold the float down against the valve body and slowly insert the drop tube overfill valve into the riser pipe. Do not force valve into the riser pipe. If any obstruction or foreign matter interferes with smooth insertion of the valve, the riser pipe must be cleared. WARNING Failure to follow the assembly and installation instructions or use of excessive force to insert the OPW 61 -SO will VOID THE WARRANTYI Figure 12 Difficulty in removing the existing fill tube. (if there is one) means there may be an obstruction in the riser pipe. Look for burrs, deformations, excess tank lining material or other projections that may interfere with easy insertion of the OPW 61 -SO. The 61 SO is designed for insertion into schedule 40 pipe. If schedule 80 pipe has been used for the riser, the 61 SO can not be installed. if seamed pipe has been used, the internal weld bead may interfere with the OPW 61 -SO and prevent installation. If the OPW 61-S0 won't slip in easily DON'T FORCE IT! Damage to the valve may result if excess force is used. Examine the riser pipe carefully; determine the nature of the obstruction; take appropriate steps to remove it. STEP 13 O CHECK INSTALLATION Insert the drop tube all the way into the tank until the flange and gasket seat onto the riser pipe. The float will swing out into the operating position as it passes into the tank. Make sure that the float is aligned along the length of the lank. The length of the tank can easily be determined by locating other manholes or pump boxes that are installed around other tank fittings. Look into the drop tube and align the deflector with the length of the tank.
