Before you start

  • The Reverse Valve must be installed and indexed with the bushing as directed. Failure to do so will cause improper operation of the Reverse Valve
  • To ensure proper Reverse Valve operation, the Reverse Lever must stay in this position when installing the Backcap and Reverse Valve

Procedure

  1. Coat a new Reverse Valve O-ring (6) with O-ring lubricant and install it in the groove on the Reverse Valve (10).
  2. Install the Reverse Valve in the reverse valve bushing with the slotted end trailing, making sure that the index mark on the Reverse Valve is aligned with the index mark on the Bushing.
  3. Insert the Reverse Lever (8) into the Handle (1).
  4. Slide the Reverse Lever Spring (7) over the shaft of the Reverse Lever and secure the Spring and Reverse Lever by installing the Reverse Lever Snap Ring (9) in the groove in the shaft of the Reverse Lever. Rotate the Reverse Lever so that it is pointing to the symbol for FORWARD (clockwise) operation.
