1. Remove cover bolts and cover.
2. Remove the retainer from the body bore. The check valve

modules can now be removed from the valve by hand or with a

screwdriver.

3. The check seats are attached to the cage with a bayonet type

locking arrangement. Holding the cage in one hand, push the

seat inward and rotate counterclock-wise against the cage. The

seat, spring cage, spring and disc assembly are now individual

components.

4. The disc assembly may now be cleaned and reassembled or

depending on its condition, may be discarded and replaced with

a new assembly from the repair kit. O-rings should be cleaned or

replaced as necessary. For more information, refer to repair parts

price list PL-RP-BPD.

5. Reassemble the Check valve modules. Check modules are

installed in the valve body with the seats facing the valve inlet.

The modules must be securely in place before the retainer can

be replaced.

No special tools required to service Series 007 and LF007.
