2. Remove the seal assembly bolt/bolt seal from the clapper seal.
3. Remove the seal-retaining ring.

THE INNER HOLE.
5. Remove the seal washer from the clapper seal. Dry up any mois-
ture that is under the seal washer and on the clapper seal.

tion, resulting in property damage.
6. Pry the clapper seal, along with the seal ring, out of the clapper.
Inspect the clapper seal. If the clapper seal is torn or worn, replace
it with a new, Victaulic-supplied clapper seal. If replacing the clap-
