CAUTION: Ensure that Lever is not twisted
and that legs are parallel. The lever should
appear as that shown on the left, not as
shown on the right. If necessary, gently
squeeze legs together to straighten.
WARNING: Ensure that the Spindle Collar
is set in the correct position. Failure to do so
will result in a substantial loss of breathing
performance.
CAUTION: Ensure that the Spindle Collar
clicks rmly into position and that the entire
Valve Spindle Hole is visible.
9. If you removed the Lever (19), position the Valve
Spindle (17) so that the Lever Hole is to the left of the
centre line and the groove is to the right of the centre
line. (See photo below left). Insert the lever so that
it points to the right of the Valve Spindle, as shown
below.
10. Ensure that the Spindle Collar (18) is rotated
to the correct position for the required Hose
conguration.
NOTE: Ensure that the Lever has a full range
of movement and does not catch on the Valve
Spindle. Ensure that the spring can be seen
through the Valve Spindle Hole.
11. With the “feet” of the Shuttle Valve pointing
downward (away from the Lever) and the Lever
pointing straight up (perpendicular to the Valve
Spindle), insert the Valve assembly into the Valve
Spindle. Using your nger, press the Shuttle Valve
assembly all the way into the Valve Spindle.
12. Install a new,
lubricated ‘O’ Ring
