7. Operation
7.1 The post indicator valve (PIV) can be opened or shut by rotating Handwheel (15) in the desired direction. To open the valve,
turn in the counter-clockwise direction as indicated on Cap (2). To shut the valve, turn in the clockwise direction. See Fig. 2.
7.2 The Target Plates (8) (9) can be visually checked in the view windows to determine if PIV is open or shut.
7.3 After installation, the PIV should be cycled to the full shut position and both view windows should be visually inspected to
assure the SHUT target plates are centered. The PIV should then be cycled to the full open position and both view windows
should be visually inspected to assure the OPEN target plates are centered.
7.4 Valve position can be secured by placing a customer supplied chain through U-bolt (23), and Handwheel (15). A customer
supplied lock can be installed into the chain and U-bolt securing Handwheel, preventing valve operation.
7.5 NIBCO Indicator Posts have provisions to add a Security Wire thru the Cap T-bolts (3) and Operating Stem (5) to prevent valve
operation.
8. Maintenance
8.1 Lubrication should be added to oil hole located in top of Operating Stem (5) on an annual basis. Note: it is necessary to
remove Eyebolt (16), Washer (17), and Handwheel (15) to expose the oil hole.
8.2 Periodic visual inspection is recommended.
8.3 Exercising (cycling) of the valve to assure proper function is recommended.
