Valve Body: Assembly

NOTE:

Before assembling the valve body, thoroughly clean all of the components with a suitable solvent and blow them dry with 344 kPa (50 psi) regulated  shop air. Clean the work surface and lay out a clean lint free cloth to avoid contaminating the clean valve body components. Lay the valve components out on the cloth in the order they will be installed in the valve body. The cloth will hold the valve components in place and keep them from rolling out of position. A light lubricating oil can be applied the each component as the valve body is assembled.
