6.0 DISASSEMBLY
(Continued)
6.1.1 Handwheels
On handwheel actuated valves (Fig. 9) the handwheel can be removed by removing the retaining ring (261)
and pulling the handwheel (136) off the yoke sleeve (017). Care should be taken not to lose the handwheel
keys (135).
Note: If desired, the yoke and handwheel assembly may be separated from the valve in one piece. Once
the yoke-bonnet fasteners are removed, the entire assembly can be raised off the stem by turning the
handwheel while the yoke is held stationary.
If further disassembly of the handwheel mechanism is required, the yoke cap capscrews (217) and the yoke
cap (019) must be removed first. Then the thrust bearing (352) and the yoke sleeve (017) can be lifted out
of the yoke (011).
