6. Use approximately 5 lbs of pressure on the
suction valve (B), and rotate it 180 degrees
clockwise, then 180 degrees counterclockwise
on the valve cartridge seat (A).
7. Each 180 degree clockwise/180 degree coun-
terclockwise movement is considered one
rotation. Complete 5 rotations.
8. Rotate valve cartridge (A) 90 degrees coun-
terclockwise while maintaining the position
of suction valve (B). Repeat steps 6 and 7.

9. Rotate suction valve (B) 90 degrees clockwise
while maintaining the position of valve car-
tridge (A). Repeat 6 and 7. Figure 3.
10. Rotate valve cartridge (A) 90 degrees coun-
terclockwise while maintaining the position
of suction valve (B). Repeat steps 6 and 7.

11. Continue steps 6-9 for 2 minutes at about 120
rotations per minute.
12. Remove the suction valve and clean both
