9.	Remove the knob, spring, sleeve, and lever from the dispensing valve.
10.	Remove spring fitting from dispensing valve.
11.	Press the valve with the caged O-ring, down and out of the dispensing valve
	body.
12.	Carefully remove the caged O-ring from the valve.
13.	Wash all the parts in warm water. Remove all traces of syrup and lubricant,
	especially from the faceplate, o-rings, and dispensing valve. If parts are
	excessively coated, wipe clean with a paper towel to remove excess syrup
	and lubricant, especially from caged o-ring and dispensing valve. Use a brush
	(provided with the unit) to clean the faceplate relief valve passages and the
	inside of the knob.
14.	Submerge all the parts in a 4-percent solution of approved sanitizing agent for
	the amount of time recommended by the sanitizer manufacturer.
15.	Remove the parts from the sanitizing solution and place them on clean paper
	towels.
16.	Assemble the dispensing valve.
17.	Lubricate the caged o-ring. Carefully install the caged o-ring onto the valve
	from the straight end (opposite tapered end). Lubricate the grooves that the o-
	ring rides to fill in all void areas around the o-ring.
18.	Carefully install the valve with the caged o-ring in the dispensing valve body.
19.	Install the spring fitting, knob and lever parts, torsion spring and spring hous-
	ing assembly by reversing the removal procedure. Do not tighten down the
	hold-down plates securing the spring housing at this time.
20.	After re-installing the faceplate, turn the dispensing valve spring housing to the
	left (counterclockwise) to put tension on the tension spring. Apply just enough
	tension so that the dispense valve shaft returns to the closed position after
	release. Do not overtighten. Overtightening results in a high activation force
	on the valve.

NOTE: Use Dow-Corning DC-111 (P/N 321471000) light grade silicone lubricant to lubricate the o-rings.

Sanitizing the System

The syrup systems should be sanitized every 180 days by a qualified service technician following the sanitizer manufacturer’s recommendations or when changing syrup types.

The sanitizing process consists of emptying the barrel, washing the lines and barrel, cleaning the BIB connectors, rinsing and refilling the system.
