The “tail” of the exhaust valve that sticks into the regulator body must be trimmed.

4)While using the castle wrench to hold the inlet valve, insert the valve into the bent tube end of the regulator body. First place the washer, then the spacer over the end of the inlet valve stem. As an alternate procedure, the washer and spacer may be placed in the recess in the inside of the regulator body before inserting the inlet valve stem.

5)Using the nut driver from the tool kit, run the nut onto the inlet valve stem approximately 1 1/2 to 2 turns, leaving enough slack to allow installation of the lever. With the inlet valve pressed in, the washer and spacer must be loose on the inlet valve stem so the lever can be installed.

6)Check the roller lever. The lever legs MUST be parallel to each other and free of any nicks or burrs. Check them with a straight edge and align them if necessary by carefully bending them with pliers.

7)Hold the inlet valve with the castle wrench so that it cannot rotate, tighten the nut until three threads are visible past the nut. This will be close enough for initial set up.

CAUTION

Be sure that the washer and spacer that are installed on the inlet valve shaft are in- stalled in the correct order. If they are not, the regulator will not perform properly.
