CAUTION
!
Be sure to verify this before removing all the bolts.
2. Remove the cover and diaphragm. The relief valve piston
assembly can be lifted straight up and out.
3. Replace the wiper seal and piston O-ring and apply grease to
the O-ring.
4. To replace the relief valve disc, hold the upper guide fin and
unscrew the diaphragm pressure plate. It may be necessary to
lightly tap the cast webs and the pressure plate to loosen.
Replace with a new disc holder assembly and O-ring. Note: the
disc rubber is molded into the disc holder and is supplied as a
disc holder assembly.
5. Removal of the bottom plug and spring assembly. During nor-
mal field service there is no need to remove the bottom plug
spring assembly other than inspection. It can be removed by
simply unscrewing with a large pipe wrench.
CAUTION
!
The spring as retained on the bottom plug is highly loaded. NO
attempt should be made in the field to remove the spring. For
replacement, a complete bottom plug assembly must be obtained
from the factory.
