Installation Procedure


NOTICE

Keep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.


  1. Install relief valve (14) in the reverse order of removal.

    1. Apply Tooling (B) to the threads of relief valve (14). Use Tooling (A) to tighten relief valve (14) to a torque of 60 ± 5 N·m (44 ± 4 lb ft).

    2. Loosen relief valve (14) to a torque of 5 ± 3 N·m (44 ± 27 lb in).

    3. Again, tighten relief valve (14) to a torque of 20 ± 2 N·m (177 ± 18 lb in).

    4. Tighten relief valve (14) an additional 18° turn. Again, Tighten relief valve (14) to a torque of 90 ± 20 N·m (66 ± 15 lb ft).
