Valve Block Assembly:
NOTE: Removable thread locking compound will be required for reassembly.
During disassembly, put one to two drops of removable thread locking compound
on threads of the valve poppet (PAT-PH-5005) and assemble.
NOTE: Replace all O-rings and Seals provided in the seal kit. Apply brown grease
(08465) to all o-rings and seal areas before assembling.
1.
Using your thumb push the Valve Piston (MPH-2517) all the way into the Lower
Valve Block (PAT-PH-5002).
2.
Apply a small amount of removable thread locking compound to the threads on
one end of the Valve Poppet (PAT-PH-5005) and thread it into the Valve Piston
(MPH-2517) in the Lower Valve Block while holding the Valve Piston with your
thumb.
3.
Turn the Valve Poppet in the Lower Valve Block (PAT-PH-5002) so that the hole
in the Poppet body is aligned with the side port.
4.
Insert a 7/32” hex wrench through the side port and into the hole in the Valve
Poppet to hold the valve poppet in place, now use a 7/16” socket wrench to
tighten the Valve Poppet into the valve piston. Do not over tighten.
5.
Apply a small amount of removable thread locking compound to the threads on
the other end of the Valve Poppet (PAT-PH-5005).
6.
Apply some brown grease (08465) to o-ring (O-B-125) on the Upper Valve Block
(PAT-PH-5001) and push it into the Lower Valve Block (PAT-PH-5002) over the
valve poppet.
7.
Insert the 7/32” hex wrench through the side port and into the hole in the Valve
Poppet (PAT-PH-5005) to hold the valve poppet in place, now use a 7/16” socket
wrench to tighten the other Valve Piston (MPH-2517) onto the Valve Poppet. Do
not over tighten.
8.
Using a 7/16” wrench install the two Hex Bolts (F-HB-04C-08) to hold the Lower
Valve Block (PAT-PH-5002) to the Upper Valve Block (PAT-PH-5001).

Install the Hex plug (PF-HP-08) into the side port of the Lower Valve Block (PAT-
PH-5002). Use Teflon tape or pipe seal compound on the pipe plug threads to
prevent an air leak.
