amounts to 90_.
5. Assembling
Assemble the valve in reverse sequence to the dismantling.
⇒ Clean all parts and smear them lightly with oil.

After completing the assembly (without cover 3) check the easy movement of the
spindle by moderately tapping the upper end of the spindle several times with a
lead block in an axial direction; the spindle must jump every time back on the seat.

⇒ Assemble cover 3 with control valve 13 and tighten screws 10.

valve.

them crosswise with 80 Nm. Starting from this position, tighten the screws by
a further angle of 90_.
