the threads - may encounter minimum resis-
tance from upward force of the piston spring.
With hand pressure continue to press body
cap down evenly until threads are engaged.
Tighten to 30-35 ft.lbs. (41-47 N-m). These
two parts seal metal-to-metal with no gasket.
10. Re-orient body assembly in vise and secure
by the body cap, (body cap oriented down).
11. Reinstall diaphragm subassembly, spring,
